Original Description
Paolo di Matteis’s The Finding of Moses is a luminous Baroque masterpiece that captures a moment of tender drama and divine providence. Set against a softly glowing landscape, the painting depicts Pharaoh’s daughter and her attendants discovering the infant Moses nestled among the reeds of the Nile. Matteis’s composition balances theatricality with delicate emotion—the figures’ flowing drapery and expressive gestures are hallmarks of Baroque dynamism, while the warm, golden light evokes a sense of sacred serenity. Painted in the early 18th century, the work reflects Matteis’s training under Luca Giordano and his ability to blend Neapolitan vibrancy with classical grace. Though less universally renowned than works by Caravaggio or Rubens, The Finding of Moses exemplifies the Baroque era’s narrative richness and remains a significant study in biblical storytelling and compositional elegance.
For a refined yet impactful decor, this painting thrives in spaces with a classic or transitional aesthetic. Hang it in a living room or study where its warm hues can complement rich wood tones, neutral walls, or deep jewel tones like emerald or sapphire. A gilded frame enhances its Baroque opulence, while a simpler frame modernizes it for contemporary settings. Ideal above a console table or fireplace, the medium-to-large scale (typical Matteis works range from 40x60 to 60x90 inches) commands attention without overwhelming. Pair it with soft, draped textiles or metallic accents to echo its luminous quality. In offices, it adds gravity and inspiration—ideal for law firms or libraries, where its narrative depth resonates with intellectual pursuits. Avoid cluttered arrangements; let its storytelling shine as a focal point.
