      Est: €2,200 - €2,500

      Andalusian school from the end of the 17th century - beginning of the 18th century. "Holy Family". Based on a Flemish engraving of 1590 or 1610 by Joan Berwinckel. Oil on canvas. Restorations visible on the back. With damages in the frame. Measurements: 131 x 106 cm; 145,5 x 120 cm. In this canvas the Holy Family is represented with the Child in the middle giving his hand to his mother, placed to his right. To his left is the figure of Joseph, also offering his hand to the Child and holding the flowering branch in the other, which is his main iconographic attribute. Above them the space opens up and the Holy Spirit appears in the form of a dove, which flies over the Child's head. In the true sense of the expression, the Holy Family is a much more restricted group than Mary's relatives. It includes only the closest relatives of the Child Jesus, i.e. mother and grandmother or mother and nurturing father. In both cases, whether it is St. Anne or St. Joseph who carries him, it is a group of three figures. The group including St Joseph with Mary and the Child is most commonly understood as the Holy Family. This motif became popular in the Renaissance, although the germ already existed in the Nativities of the Middle Ages. However, devotion to the Holy Family did not yet exist at that time, as the theme spread mainly through the art of the Counter-Reformation, which encouraged its cult. Within the iconography of Joseph, Mary and Jesus, this canvas belongs to the type depicting the two Trinities. It was a frequent theme in the 17th century, especially in France and the Netherlands, and represents the earthly Trinity placed under the protection of the heavenly Trinity.
