Über das Gemälde
Denys Calvaert called Dionisio Fiammingo (1540-1619) was born in Antwerp where he was a pupil of the landscape painter Kerstiaen van Queboorn (1515-78). Around 1560, he settled in Bologna where he entered the workshop of Prospero Fontana (1512-1597). He later worked with Lorenzo Sabatini (ca. 1520-1576) and in 1572 accompanied him to Rome where he remained for two years. Upon his return to Bologna he founded a school of painting in which he trained Guido Reni (1575-1642) and Domenichino (1581-1641) among others.

This painting showing the Virgin holding the Child with St Joseph in the left background is an imitation of the art of Denys Calvaert who specialised in small devotional paintings. The quality of the picture is rather good although does not reach the refinement of Calvaert's technique. The painting may therefore have been executed in the late 18th century looking back to late 16th-century compositions.
