Adoration of the Magi
Oil on octagonal canvas
cm. 74x96,5. Framed
This previously unknown painting demonstrates clear Neapolitan roots and is attributable to a master active in the 1640s–1650s. It combines post-Caravaggesque naturalism with a classicist elegance in composition, drawing, and color. The work shows strong affinities with Bernardo Cavallino, particularly in the figures’ expressions, postures, and spatial arrangement, recalling his works such as Return of the Prodigal Son (Museo di Capodimonte, Naples) and The Holy Family on the Flight into Egypt (Wadsworth Atheneum, Hartford).
