Adoration of the Christ Child  #841107
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="4"><tr><td><em> Oil on Metal</em></td></tr><tr> <td width="100%"> This representation of the adoration of Christ as a child is reminiscent of the Flemish school paintings, particularly the religious-themed engravings of Rubens, which highly influenced Spanish School painting during the 17th Century. Paintings on metal, because of the surface's hardness, tend to age better and develop less cracks than paintings on "softer" surfaces such as canvas and wood which can shrink or expand as a result of temperature, humidity or other environmental changes. The painting is framed in a gilt frame with a small plaque in the center of the lower border that reads: "Esc. Espanola Siglo XVII" which means "Spanish School 17th Century." Additional photos available upon request.
