Angelo Caroselli

Rome 1585 - 1652

Bust of a woman



oil on canvas

canvas: 18⅛ by 14⅛ in.; 46 by 35.8 cm.

framed: 26¼ by 22⅛ in.; 66.7 by 56.1 cm.

The female figure in this painting bears close similarities to the Vanitas composition by Angelo Caroselli.1 The delicate, sweet facial features of the figure and portrayal of the dress illustrate typical of the artist.

We are grateful to Marta Rossetti and Dr. Nikita de Vernejoul for confirming the attribution to Caroselli, on the basis of digital photographs.
