Item Overview

Description

Con marco de época de 86 x 71 cm. El tema de la Divina Pastora se popularizó en Andalucía y aún más en Sevilla en el siglo XVIII gracias al monje capuchino fray Isidoro de Sevilla que en 1705 encargó un lienzo de este tema a Alonso Miguel de Tovar, pidiéndole que representara lo más fielmente posible la visión que de María había tenido. Éste pintor junto con Bernardo Lorente Germán crearon una iconografía típica que se popularizó enseguida llegando a todos los rincones de Andalucía con diferentes calidades técnicas. La Virgen se presenta sentada en una roca en campo abierto, con ropas populares, pelliza de lana de oveja y sombrero de campesina colgado en el árbol tras ella. Al fondo dos angelotes que recuerdan a los de Domingo Martínez, alimentan a las ovejas con flores. Detrás del grupo, un árbol que a la derecha se abren dejando ver un paisaje que se prolonga hasta el horizonte; en un medio plano un lobo ataca a una oveja que huye despavorida. Esta representación sigue fielmente la descripción que de esta advocación mariana hace el fraile "En el centro y bajo la sombre de un árbol, la Virgen Santísima sedante en una peña, irradiando de su rostro divino amor y ternura. La túnica roja, pero cubierto el busto hasta las rodillas de blanco pellico, ceñido en la cintura. Un manto azul, terciado al hombro izquierdo, envolverá el contorno de su cuerpo, y hacia el derecho, en las espaldas, llevará el sombrero pastoril, y junto a la diestra aparecerá el báculo de su podaría. en la mano izquierda sostendrá rosas y posará la mano derecha sobre un cordero que se acoge hacia su regazo. algunas ovejas rodearán a la Virgen, formando su rebaño, y todas en sus boquitas llevarán sendas rosas, simbólicas del avemaría con que la veneran. En lontananza se verá una oveja extraviada y perseguida por el lobo- el enemigo emergente de una cueva con afán de devorarla, pero pronuncia el avemaría; y a aparecerá el arcángel San Miguel, bajando del Cielo, con el escudo protector y la flecha, que ha de hundir en el testuz del lobo maldito." El Arcángel San Miguel sobrevolando la escena así como el rostro de la Virgen deben ponerse en relación con otros del sevillano Juan de Espinal por lo que bien podría atribuirse esta obra a su pincel.

With vintage frame of 86 x 71 cm. The theme of the Divina Pastora was popularized in Andalusia and even more so in Seville in the 18th century thanks to the capuchin monk Fray Isidoro of Seville who in 1705 commissioned a canvas of this theme from Alonso Miguel de Tovar, asking him to represent as faithfully as possible the vision that Mary had had. This painter, together with Bernardo Lorente Germán, created a typical iconography that quickly became popular, reaching all corners of Andalusia with different technical qualities. The Virgin is seated on a rock in an open field, wearing folk clothes, sheep wool pelisse and peasant hat hanging on the tree behind her. In the background two angels that remind those of Domingo Martinez, feed the sheep with flowers. Behind the group, a tree that to the right they open revealing a landscape that extends to the horizon;In a flat environment a wolf attacks a sheep that fled in terror. This representation faithfully follows the description of this Marian dedication made by the friar "In the center and under the shade of a tree, the Most Holy Virgin sedated in a rock, radiating from her face divine love and tenderness. Bust to the knees of white pellico, tight at the waist.A blue mantle, thirds on the left shoulder, will wrap the contour of his body, and to the right, on the back, will wear the pastoral hat, and next to the right will appear In his left hand he will hold roses and put his right hand on a lamb that welcomes into his lap, some sheep will surround the Virgin, forming their flock, and all in their little mouths will carry pink, symbolic paths of the Hail Mary with that venerate herIn the distance you will see a sheep lost and persecuted by the wolf - the enemy emerging from a cave with eagerness to devour it, but pronounces the Hail Mary; and the archangel San Miguel will appear, coming down from Heaven, with the protective shield and the arrow, which will sink into the womb of the cursed wolf. "The Archangel Saint Michael flying over the scene as well as the face of the Virgin must be placed in contact with others of the Sevillian Juan de Espinal reason why well this work could be attributed to his brush.The Archangel San Miguel flying over the scene as well as the face of the Virgin must be put in relation with others of the Sevillian Juan de Espinal reason why this work could be attributed to his brush.The Archangel San Miguel flying over the scene as well as the face of the Virgin must be put in relation with others of the Sevillian Juan de Espinal reason why this work could be attributed to his brush.
