Post lot text

ANGELICA KAUFFMANN, RA, ALLEGORY OF MERCY AND TRUTH, OIL ON ZINC

Truth, a book in hand and wearing a robe decorated with the sun, raises her gaze to the sky and embraces Mercy with her left arm. The latter, holding an olive branch in her hand, looks down modestly at the fruit at her feet. The subject of this allegorical composition is taken from the Book of Psalms: "Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other" (Ps 85, 10).

For more information on this painting, see the note on Lot 48.

We would like to thank Dr. Bettina Baumgärtel for confirming the attribution to Angelica Kauffmann based on a first-hand inspection of the work, which she plans to include in her forthcoming catalogue raisonné of the artist.
