Surrounding by Giulio PIPPI (Rome, ca. 1492-Mantua, 1546), known as Giulio ROMANO
Virgin and Child with St. Joseph and St. John the Baptist
Oil on panel transferred to canvas
65 x 50 cm
(restored, repainted)
Provenance: brought back from Rome at the beginning of the 20th century by the abbot Albert Misonne, and since then remained in the family of the present owner in Belgium.

An example of Italian mannerism of the mid-16th century, this painting expresses very well the concept of the reproduction in painting of formulas drawn from the Renaissance masters. The central composition with the Madonna and Child is taken from a painting by Giulio Romano, dated 1520-22, kept in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence (inv. 1890 n. 2147), to which the artist added the two figures of saints with worried expressions.

Cerchia di Giulio PIPPI (Roma, 1492 ca.-Mantova, 1546), detto Giulio ROMANO
Madonna con Bambino, San Giuseppe e San Giovanni Battista
Olio su tavola trasferito su tela
65 x 50 cm
(restauri, ridipinture)
Provenienza: portato da Roma all'inizio del XX secolo dal chierico Albert Misonne e da allora nelle collezioni della famiglia in Belgio.

An example of Italian handling from the 16th century, this is a very good example of the concept of riproduzione in pittura di formula tratte dai maestri del Rinascimento maturo. La composizione centrale della Madonna con Bambino è ripresa da un dipinto di Giulio Romano, datato 1520-22, conservato agli Uffizi di Firenze (inv. 1890 n. 2147), a cui l'artista aggiunge le due figure dei santi dalle espressioni contractte.
