Why You’ll Love It
Hand-painted by acclaimed UK miniature artist Lara Byng of Dark Willow Art, this rare framed work recreates Giulio Cesare Procaccini’s The Virgin and Child with the Infant Saint John and Attendant Angels. Byng’s paintings are exceptionally difficult to find, making this a particularly special piece for serious collectors. The composition captures the soft movement, devotional intimacy, and flowing Mannerist-Baroque character of the original, all rendered on a remarkable miniature scale. Finished in an ornate gilded frame.
Perfect for: Renaissance and Baroque interiors, chapels, castle rooms, formal galleries, historic homes, or collectors of rare artisan miniature paintings.

A Note About Value
Every miniature we offer has been carefully evaluated for its craftsmanship, rarity, condition, provenance, and collectibility. Many of the artisan pieces we sell are one-of-a-kind works that may never appear on the market again. While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.
Our pricing reflects the miniature's place within today's collector market and the years we've spent studying the artists, histories, and values that make these tiny works of art so special.
A Commitment to Research
Every miniature has a story, and uncovering it is one of our greatest passions. We carefully research each piece, but unsigned or illegible works can remain mysteries. If you can identify an artist or provide additional information, we'd be delighted to hear from you and will gladly update the listing to preserve their legacy.
