About 1632 Stom went to Naples, and in the 1640s he was active in Palermo and elsewhere in Sicily.

Both the name Stom and the usual description of him as \"fiamingo\" indicate that he was Flemish, not Dutch. He specialized in exaggerated Caravaggesque effects of light and shadow, with leathery surfaces suited to his frequent representation of elderly characters.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/art\/collection\/search\/437757\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York - Old Woman Praying\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Matthias Stom","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":49887970689267,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (30 5\/8\" x 25 1\/8\")","offer_id":49887970722035,"sku":null,"price":1270.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (19 3\/4\" x 16 1\/4\")","offer_id":49887970754803,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (24 1\/4\" x 19 7\/8\")","offer_id":49887970787571,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (29 5\/8\" x 24 3\/8\")","offer_id":49887970820339,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (38 1\/4\" x 31 3\/8\")","offer_id":49887970853107,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (45 7\/8\" x 37 3\/4\")","offer_id":49887970885875,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (54 1\/8\" x 44 3\/8\")","offer_id":49887970918643,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (64 7\/8\" x 53 3\/8\")","offer_id":49887970951411,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/OldWomanPraying.jpg?v=1785968559","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/old-woman-praying","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
