CIRCLE OF BENEDETTO LUTTI - ROMAN SCHOOL PASTEL OF THE VIRGIN IN CONTEMPLATION.

A fine and sensitively rendered 18th century Italian pastel on paper portrait of the Virgin in contemplation. This graceful, intimate and vibrantly coloured work has been sensitively rendered by a master artist.

The soft, delicate and luminous head of the Virgin demonstrates how well the medium of pastel painting is able to convey the contemplative nature of its subject.

This fine pastel portrait is in an excellent state of conservation and is ready to hang and enjoy in a later fine quality gilt frame.
