Verified profile

The group, donated in 1985 by the Catello heirs, is composed, on a wooden and cork rock, of the three figures of the Madonna, Saint Joseph and the Child Jesus, modeled by the Neapolitan sculptor Giuseppe Sammartino, author of the Veiled Christ, of the Sansevero chapel of Naples. Unlike the other figures made with only the head and limbs in terracotta on a body made of wire and tow, the angel suspended above, attributed to Salvatore Franco, is modeled in the round; the angel in the foreground on the left is attributable to Lorenzo Mosca, and the puttino to Nicola Ingaldo, artisans active in Naples between the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the following one. Francesco Gallo and the Vassallo brothers, specialized in animals, are the authors, the first of the ox and the donkey, and the second of the sheep.
