Painting Description
"Madonna del Latte e San Giovannino" is a Baroque-era painting by the Italian artist Francesco Trevisani. Created in the early 18th century, this artwork is a devotional image that depicts the Virgin Mary breastfeeding the infant Jesus, a subject known in art history as the Madonna Lactans. The painting also features a young Saint John the Baptist, or San Giovannino, often included in scenes with the Holy Family as a foreshadowing of his role in Christ's life.
Trevisani, born in 1656 in Capodistria, then part of the Republic of Venice and now Koper, Slovenia, was a prominent painter of his time, known for his religious compositions, portraits, and history paintings. He spent the majority of his career in Rome, where he became a respected artist among the Roman clergy and aristocracy. His style was influenced by the works of the leading Baroque painters of the era, such as Carlo Maratta and the Bolognese school, and he was known for his ability to blend Venetian colorism with Roman classicism.
"Madonna del Latte e San Giovannino" is a testament to Trevisani's skill in capturing the tenderness and intimacy of the mother-child relationship while also conveying the sanctity of its subjects. The Virgin Mary is often portrayed in a moment of maternal care, which serves both as an emblem of her nurturing role and as a symbol of the Church nourishing its faithful. The inclusion of Saint John the Baptist as a child, identifiable by his traditional attributes such as a reed cross or a lamb, adds a layer of narrative to the painting, hinting at the future ministry and baptism of Christ.
The painting is executed in oil on canvas, a medium that allowed Trevisani to achieve the soft gradations of light and shade characteristic of the Baroque style. His use of color, delicate brushwork, and attention to detail contribute to the overall sense of grace and harmony within the composition.
While the exact dimensions and current location of "Madonna del Latte e San Giovannino" may not be specified in this introduction, the work remains an important example of Trevisani's religious oeuvre and of the broader tradition of Marian iconography in Christian art. It reflects the cultural and spiritual values of its time and offers insight into the devotional practices and artistic preferences of the Catholic Church during the Baroque period.
