Francesco Trevisani, Madonna of the Rosary (La Madone du Rosaire), 1714-1715, oil on canvas, 29x 21 in. ( cm), This beautifully composed and vividly colored Roman painting from the early years of the eighteenth century is either a fully executed modello made during the preparation of the altarpiece or a ricordo, a smaller version created after the altarpiece was finished. Cardinal Sacripanti commissioned the altar in the cathedral of his hometown, Narni, in central Italy. Located in a chapel dedicated to the Blessed Lucy, the altarpiece demonstrates Trevisani's masterful talent at the height of his career. The artist has drawn from venerable traditions of Italian painting to bring this imagined conversation to life. Surrounding the Virgin and Child are the adoring Saints Catherine, Dominic, Francis of Paola, and Anthony of Padua. Trevisani completed three additional canvases for the chapel dedicated to mystical visions of the Blessed Lucy and the Death of Saint Joseph.
