Madonna And Child, Carved Wood, Gilded And Polychrome – Late 19th / Early 20th Century

Hand-carved wooden sculpture of the Madonna and Child, gilded in gold leaf and polychrome painted. Likely made of limewood, the piece measures 38 cm in height, 16.5 cm in width, and 11 cm in depth.
The Madonna is shown standing, wrapped in a flowing gilded mantle, contrasted by the polychrome-painted areas of her face and hands. The Child, depicted nude, is tenderly held and gazes towards his Mother.
The sober style suggests an Italian origin between the late 19th and early 20th century, Alpine area.
Good condition overall, with minor cracks and wear consistent with age. The gilding and polychromy show signs of later retouches, yet the piece retains its devotional charm and decorative impact.
