De heilige Sereno 1712 - 1786

Giovanni Marco Pitteri's etching "De heilige Sereno" depicts a holy figure in a bishop's attire, looking up with clasped hands. The image is set against a light, cloudy background with the inscription "S.Sereno Vescovo, di.Martiria e Protettore di.Buondrate," adding context to the figure's identity. The small scale (125 mm x 95 mm) of the etching suggests a more intimate devotional purpose. It is likely a print from the late 18th century, reflecting the artistic style of that period. This work, likely created for private devotion, offers a glimpse into the devotional art of its time, highlighting a prominent figure in religious history.
