A tender 19th-century oil on panel depicting a sleeping putto, lying serenely atop a bed of straw. Painted with soft, luminous brushwork, the scene radiates quiet innocence and intimacy. Though unsigned, the artist’s hand is confident and poetic, capturing both the tenderness and serenity of the scene. What sets this work apart is its unusually square format, rare for the period and particularly compelling in person. This compositional choice gives the painting a jewel-box quality.
