The Boy with the Thorn, Colonial School, First Half of the 18th Century

Descriptio Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 47 x 33 cm. The Christ Child is depicted seated in a richly ornamented armchair, intently removing a thorn while holding in his hands the foreshadowing symbol of the Passion. The luxurious fabric decorated with gold motifs and the intense darkness of the background enhance the meditative nature of the scene. The delicate modeling, the meticulous decoration, and the refined use of color are characteristic of 18th-century New Spanish painting, where childlike tenderness is combined with a profound symbolic and devotional charge. Dimensions: 47 x 33 cm. Due to its age and history of use, this lot may show signs of wear and previous interventions. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, no specialized technical testing has been performed. The absence of any mention of restorations does not guarantee that none exist.
