Bartolomeo Schedoni (1578-1615)

Artist Name Bartolomeo Schedoni (1578-1615) TitleThe Holy Family DescriptionOld Dutch/Italian Master 17th century oil painting. The scene depicts the Holy Family with San Giovannino. This is a scene depicted from the Bible many times throughout art history. It is an interesting painting and has strong painterly similarities to the work by Schedoni in the Fitzwilliam gallery in Cambridge. It bares the name Schedoni verso so it is possible the attribution is to Schedoni or his studio. It also has a Frost and Reed Gallery label with the name Rubens - which attributes it to Rubens. It is possibly a Rubens Studio painting as they produced many religious oil paintings. This would need research to verify the artist but is a fantastic, well painted and detailed painting.
