Fig. 1 Paolo De Matteis, The Immaculate Conception, Chiatamone, Church of the Conception.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

An example of a study for a religious composition, this sheet is typical of the style of Paolo De Matteis and can be related to two paintings of the same subject created for Neapolitan churches. One conceived in 1722 for the church of San Francesco degli Scarioni and on deposit at San Lorenzo, the other c. 1726 for the church of the Conception at Chiatamone, these two illustrations of the Immaculate Conception are close and repeat elements of
\nour drawing: a vertical composition, with the figure of God the Father at the top, the Virgin in the centre  standing on a crescent of the Moon, stamping on the  snake, surrounded by cherubim and supported by one or  two angels. The angel on the right is here sitting, legs  crossed in a position that can be found to a greater or lesser extent in both paintings. The one on the left supports the clouds with its left hand. In the paintings, Matteis reuses these different positions by organizing them differently: in the one of 1722, the right hand angel  combines the two positions since, crossing its legs, it also  supports the clouds while in the one of 1726, it is the left  hand angel which in reverse, crosses its legs.<\/p>\n

Matteis has  also used this theme, inserting it in larger compositions, such as the Exaltation of the Virgin in the  Old and New Testaments<\/em> (Berlin, Gem\u00e4ldegalerie) of  1716-1717, where he still shows this same way of  arranging the figures, repeating this angel with crossed  legs on several occasions. The hand is typical and recalls  numerous drawings by Matteis and, as in the previous  drawing his training with Giordano is still evident.  Following the example of his former master, he uses  outlines in pen and brown ink, to which the wash gives all its force and dimensionality. The graphic style is perfectly comparable to the Charity of Saint Vincent de Paul, for  example a drawing in the same technique in the museum  of Darmstadt, published by Walter Vitzthum,1 then by  Erich Schleier,2 who connects it to the painting of the  same subject, which in the meantime reappeared at the  Heim gallery. Yet again, we find this same angel, almost a  commonplace for Matteis. The piece of wood at the  centre of the sheet should be mentioned, taken up in the  fibres of the paper, it is an original trace of the  handcrafted paper.<\/p>\n
