Luca Giordano
(Napoli 1634 - 1705)
Holy Family with Saint John Oil on canvas cm. 100x75. Framed The painting is accompanied by an expertise by Prof. Nicola Spinosa.
Previously unpublished, this painting has been attributed to Luca Giordano by Professor Nicola Spinosa, who dates it to the late 1660s or early 1670s. The Holy Family is depicted as an intimate domestic scene, animated by tender exchanges among the figures and enriched by refined still-life details. The luminous palette, balanced composition and softened emotional tone relate closely to Giordano’s mature production of the period. Stylistic comparisons may be drawn with works such as the Christ Deposed in Venice and the signed Madonna of the Rosary (1672) in Crispano. The painting exemplifies Giordano’s synthesis of naturalism and neo-Venetian classicism.
