Alessandro d'Anna(attributed)
(Italian, 1746-1810)
(Donna) di Zaccaria, circa 1790s
Gouache on laid paper
9 1/2" x 7 1/4"

A small work on paper featuring Italian costume of the late 18th century, the subject a woman ofZaccaria, a localityin Naples, and two children. Unsigned but attributed, as it is typical of the artist's style, bears physical characteristics of the period, and appears strikingly similar to another signed work of the same title. Presented behind glass in a frame that measures 13 1/4" x 11 1/2".

The frame has a number of losses to the gesso coat, showing through to the carved wood. The work appears to be good and stable; it has not been removed from the frame.
