Framed Madonna della Salute Icon Reproduction with Music Box

This item is a framed reproduction of the 'Madonna della Salute' icon, originating from the Basilica dei Santi Cosma e Damiano in Rome. The image itself depicts the Virgin Mary holding the infant Jesus in an iconic Byzantine artistic style, characterized by a gold halo behind Mary's head and distinct color palettes for the figures' garments. Mary is depicted in a dark blue or black mantle with ornate cross-like markings on her head and shoulders, potentially indicating a depiction of a particular Marian image. The infant Jesus wears a red and teal garment. The background of the icon reproduction appears to mimic aged fresco or distressed paint, contributing to an antique aesthetic. The print is housed within a vibrant red wooden frame, which has a glossy finish. Underneath the image, there is a cream-colored border with the text 'MADONNA DELLA SALUTE' and 'ROMA - BASILICA DEI SANTI COSMA E DAMIANO' printed in black. This framing suggests it is intended for display. A key distinguishing feature, mentioned in the context, is that this framed item also functions as a music box, playing Christmas music. This combination of religious art and a musical feature suggests it is a decorative and devotional item, likely produced as a souvenir or gift item. The visible condition suggests it's a mass-produced item rather than an original artwork or a high-end reproduction, but the vibrant red frame is well-preserved. Estimated age is likely 20th to 21st century.
