Antonio Nicolini - ‘A Pious Monk at Prayer’

And another trial post - an oil on copper we have from C17 Italian painter Antonio Nicolini - ‘A Pious Monk at Prayer’ …

The artist’s name can be faintly discerned etched into the exposed copper verso. It is below the late C18 or early C19 the label attached when the work was presumably re-framed.

Enjoy!
