Giovanni Battista Marcola (Verona 1711 - 1780) a) Madonna and Child with the Three Magi b) Madonna and Child with the Holy Bishop

One signed lower left, J. B. Marcola F.

Both works were conceived as companion pieces, consistent in format, compositional structure, and architectural layout. The paintings reveal a fluid and harmonious style, typical of the 18th-century Veronese school, with warm colors, a balanced palette, and a skillful rendering of drapery.
The compositional structure, the intimate yet narratively rich tone, and the quality of execution clearly point to the circle of Giovanni Battista Marcola, a painter active in Verona and linked to the local late Baroque tradition with Rococo influences. The presence of the signature on one of the two paintings confirms the attribution and allows the entire pair to be confidently attributed to his mature production. Pair of oils on canvas, both 81 x 46 cm - framed 98 x 63 cm
