We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

This pair of seventeenth-century Italian Baroque oil paintings on wood depict sacred religious figures within ornate carved and polychromed frames finished in muted silver leaf and dark brown. Each oval portrait aperture sits inside scrollwork frames featuring volute scrolls and a cherub head crest at the top, complemented by carved mouldings and visible wear across the surfaces. Every piece measures 48 cm high, 34 cm wide, and 5 cm deep. Display these decorative items on narrow wall spaces in a living room, hallway, or study to add historic religious imagery to domestic interiors. They hang securely as wall art, bringing period character to empty partitions.

FAQs

Italian Baroque devotional art typically features dramatic lighting contrasts, rich tones, and sacred figures such as the Virgin Mary, often enclosed within ornate sculptural or architectural frames.

These pieces were commonly painted in oil on timber panels or canvas and housed within hand-carved wood frames finished with gesso, silver leaf, or gold gilding.

Authenticity is evaluated through traditional hand-carved frame joinery, natural age-related paint cracking known as craquelure, and characteristic oxidation on metal leaf or painted surfaces.

Displaying small framed paintings as a symmetrical pair on a narrow wall space or within a curated gallery wall creates a compelling focal point alongside contemporary furnishings.

Dust surfaces gently using a dry, soft microfibre brush and maintain the artwork in a climate-controlled room away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
