Master of the Announcement to the Shepherds Lot n° 105

St. Dominic Penitent, Half XVII Century;Oil on canvas, 116 x 96 cm_x000D_ Work bound by the MIBAC with decree of 2/27/1997 ""... It is therefore clear that the work called 'S. Domenico penitente' has not yet been recognized in a precise artist, if not a certain 'Master of the Announcement to the Shepherds' (Jaun Do o Bartolomeo Passante), to whom - to date - it has not been attributed a precise identity. However, the work, also considering the constraint imposed by the Ministero for Beni ed Attività appears to be of considerable artistic interest, moreover, attributable to a representative great master of the Neapolitan seventeenth century and - albeit with mixed reviews - could belong to Ribera himself."
