Description: CAPTIVATING ANTIQUE ITALIAN NEOCLASSICAL IMPRESSIONIST OIL PAINTING ON BOARD DEPICTING A CHERUB BOY SITTING ON A GLOBE PEDESTAL LOOKING DOWN AT A NUDE MAN PARTIALLY COVERED IN A RED GOURMET WITH A LETTER IN HAND. A SYMBOLIC LAMB IS RAISED ON ITS HIND LEGS WHILE ITS FRONT LEGS REST ON THE MAN'S HEAD. IN CHRISTIANITY, THE LAMB REPRESENTS CHRISTS AS BOTH SUFFERING AND TRIUMPHANT. THIS IS AN INTRIGUING AND CAPTIVATING PAINTING. IT APPEARS TO BE UNSIGNED. PERHAPS YOU RECOGNIZE THE ARTIST OR ITS ORIGINS? IT’S HOUSED IN AN ELEGANT 23.75 KARAT ROSENOBLE GOLD FRAME. THERE’S A GOLD PLAQUE MOUNTED TO THE LOWER FRONT WITH GERMAN WRITING. IT APPEARS TO BE OVER 100 YEARS OLD. IF ANYONE CAN PROVIDE ANY INFORMATION ON THIS PIECE, IT WOULD BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED.
