Measurements: 100 x 128 cm without frame Measurements: 118 x 144 cm with frame (as a gift) . Oil on canvas depicting the judgment of Solomon. This painting, with a complex narrative structure, embodies in an exemplary way the pictorial creed of Demurian painting, we see how the Solimenesque lesson is in De Mura alive and essential; the tangle of figures that are expressed through sinuous and agitated movements of shape, to strike the attention and "excite" the viewer. The full Rococo, which in Naples in the 1700s had great fortune, in this work is strongly expressed not only by the compositional plot, but also by the brightness and chromatic complexity. The work in question is an excellent qualitative example of the Neapolitan Rococo, which in our opinion presents some points, such as the main figures, where the quality becomes excellent and where therefore it is highly probable that there is the direct hand of the master De Mura, to the light of the fact that the Neapolitan master often completed the works of his workshop. Coming from a private collection. It is in good state of conservation, in patina. Relined and relined in the 19th century. Slight crachelure. Small and insignificant restorations emerge from the Wood lamp. Upon verification with solvents, it was found to be authentic in all its parts.
