Christ Child as Salvator Mundi 18th Century Italian oil on Canvas Painting
An antique 18th century Italian painting depiting the figure of the infant Christ as Salvator Mundi, in a cloudy sky, loosely draped, holding the celestial globe in His left hand and a crucifix in the right hand.
With His right foot he subdues the head of a winged dragon that seems to have a resigned look.
The painting represents the victory of Faith over evil, a matter underlined by the Light illuminating Christ Child contrasting the darkness of the background.
