Antique Bronze Sculpture of a Girl by P. Trubetskoy XX Century - Italy, XX Century

Oil on canvas. Central European school of the late 19th-early 20th century. Unidentified signature lower right. Green countryside landscape with leafy trees in autumn colors and a chalet in the center; on the wide path on the right, which leads to a lake, the figures of a woman and a child pass.

Allegory

Oil on canvas. Signed lower left. The large painting features two figures: on the right a man sitting at a table, dressed in a red dressing gown, with a sad and concentrated expression, playing with his hands with some disheveled flowers, coming from the composition on his head; on the left standing the Christ of the Passion, crowned with thorns, with a gray cloak on his shoulders. Behind the seated man, a leaden sky in which, however, a ray of light opens. The painting probably wants to allegorically depict the painful and suffered end of the life of a person, who lives the same Passion as Christ, but who yearns for a new, bright life. The work is presented in a frame.
