Oil on hammered copper depicting the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, carried to heaven on clouds and surrounded by cherubs. The Virgin, hands clasped, dressed in red and blue, embodies the moment traditionally celebrated in Catholic liturgy, although not recounted in the Gospels. The use of copper, typical of small, precious 17th-century formats, accentuates the vividness of the colors. Carved and gilded wood frame.
