Ex voto For Grace Received - early 1900s

Ex voto, oil on hardboard, dated 1927. The ex voto painting is a form of popular artistic expression that expresses gratitude for overcoming a difficulty, such as an illness, an accident, or a long journey. The painting depicts a pious woman kneeling on the steps of an altar praying and giving thanks for the Grace Received. Splendid details of the altar furnishings: the triptych of cartaglorie, the candlesticks, the vases with fresh flowers, the tabernacle surmounted by a painting depicting Jesus. Note the fine execution of the lace that descends from the altar. On the base of the wall under the window is the inscription: P.G.R. (Per Grazia Ricevuta - For Grace Received) 1927 FERRERO BENEDETTA. The ex voto is embellished with a gilded wooden frame. Perfect state of preservation. Size: cm. 52.5 x 40 Object accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
