"Madonna Addolorata" is a notable work by the Italian Baroque painter Lorenzo De Caro, an artist active in Naples during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. This painting is one of De Caro's religious compositions, depicting the Virgin Mary in a state of sorrow, a theme common in Christian art that reflects Mary's grief over the Passion and Crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The term "Addolorata" is Italian for "sorrowful" or "dolorous," and it is a representation that has been a subject of devotion and artistic representation in Catholic tradition, particularly during the Baroque period.

Lorenzo De Caro, born in 1679 and deceased in 1750, was a pupil of the prominent Neapolitan painter Francesco Solimena. De Caro's style was influenced by Solimena's dramatic use of light and color, as well as by the works of other masters of the Neapolitan Baroque. In "Madonna Addolorata," De Caro's mastery of emotional expression and his ability to convey deep religious sentiment are evident. The painting likely served a devotional purpose, intended to evoke empathy and reflection in the viewer.

The exact date of "Madonna Addolorata" is not well-documented, but it is generally attributed to the early 18th century, a period when De Caro was actively producing works for churches and private patrons. The painting is characterized by its rich color palette, the detailed rendering of the Virgin's attire, and the poignant expression of sorrow on her face. The use of chiaroscuro, a technique that employs strong contrasts between light and dark, enhances the dramatic effect of the scene and draws attention to the figure of the Virgin.

While the specific dimensions and current location of "Madonna Addolorata" by Lorenzo De Caro are not readily available, the work remains an important example of Neapolitan Baroque painting and contributes to the understanding of religious iconography and artistic expression during this period. The painting is a testament to the enduring power of religious art to convey complex human emotions and to inspire contemplation and devotion among its viewers.
