Bidspirit auction | Saint John with the lamb,

Saint John with the lamb, follower of Murillo, late 19th century - Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 101 × 74 cm (canvas) and 120 × 93 cm (frame). This work depicts Saint John the Baptist with the lamb, inspired by the models of Murillo. The scene, marked by its sentimentality, shows the young man in a red tunic in an idealized landscape, illuminated by a celestial beam. The soft brushstrokes and the delicate transition of light reflect the fin-de-siècle academic style that reinterprets the Sevillian Baroque.
