Venus and Cupid
Technique: oil on wood
Dimensions: 75 x 57 cm.
The work, following an ancient attribution placed on the back of the table, is ascribed to the Danubian School of the first half of the 16th century. In particular, there are evident tangents with Lucas Cranach and his students.
The attribution to an artist belonging to the School of Fontainebleau has recently been suggested, recognizing equally plausible stylistic affinities with the manner of Luca Penni.
The work is presented in a discreet conservative state. An analysis with Wood's Lamp reveals scattered repaintings on the background and on the body of Venus and that of Cupid.
The important frame, made in Siena, is coeval.
