Spain Halts Auction of Painting of Jesus After Evidence Indicates It Could Be a Rare Caravaggio
On 4/8/21 at 1:37 PM EDT
Government authorities in Spain prohibited the potential export of a painting that was previously set for auction later this week, after discovering that art piece could be a rare work created by Michelangelo Marisa da Caravaggio.
The Italian painter, active during the latter part of the 16th century and very early years of the 17th century, produced a number of widely celebrated pieces credited for their influence on the Baroque style. Caravaggio s paintings can be viewed at some of the world s most esteemed museums, including the Louvre in Paris, National Gallery in London, Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy, and Museo Nacional del Prado in Madrid.

An enduring stereotype when it comes to Spaniards is that they live at home far longer than their European counterparts, enjoying all the home comforts madre can offer until often well into their 30s.

Spain: Work due for auction from $1,800 may be a Caravaggio

MADRID (AP) Spanish authorities have slapped an export ban on a painting a day before it was due to be auctioned with a starting price tag of 1,500 euros ($1,780), saying it could be a lost work by Italian Baroque master Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio.
The oil-on-canvas work apparently depicts the Biblical passage of the Ecce Homo, in which Jesus Christ is presented to the crowds before being crucified. The 111-by-86-centimeter (44-by-34-inch) piece had been attributed to disciples of José de Ribera, a 17th-century Spanish painter who was fond of Caravaggio s work.
