Virgin And Child In Ivory, 17th Century

Standing Virgin and Child, carrying the Infant Jesus. She is dressed in a tunic, tightened at the waist by a thin belt and covered with a cloak placed on her narrow shoulders. The drapery is soft and natural and follows the lines of the body. Under a short veil hiding her hair, her face is outlined with fine and regular features, a straight nose, almond-shaped eyes, and thin lips. The Infant Jesus holds a globe in his hands. The face of Christ shows a great resemblance to that of his mother. He sketches a slight smile.
