The Theological Virtues 1755

"The Theological Virtues" is a 1755 painting by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, a renowned Venetian artist of the 18th century. The artwork depicts a group of figures, including a central female figure, likely representing Faith, accompanied by cherubs, embodying the virtues of Hope and Charity. The use of light and shadow creates a sense of drama, highlighting the celestial atmosphere of the painting, characteristic of Tiepolo's later style. Currently housed in the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, Brussels, "The Theological Virtues" stands as a testament to Tiepolo's mastery in capturing both the divine and the human.
