Sculpture Of The Virgin And Child In Tyrolean Oak, German Religious Art, 20th Century

Sculpture Virgin with a Child in oak wood from Tyrol Religious art German 20th

Celebrate your faith with this wonderful representation of the Virgin Mary and the child Jesus made of oak wood, of German origin, it dates from the second part of the twentieth century.

It is a very beautiful work resulting from the popular religious craftsmanship of Germany: entirely carved and varnished by hand, it sports a very expressive and maternal character, with more modern traits compared to previous German productions which have a more 'gothic' style, more austere, where the virgin would wear a veil and a fuller outfit, and the baby Jesus would have less 'childish' and more 'rigid' facial features.

This more popular performance draws its inspiration from the Alpine Baroque style with German-Austrian influences from the Alpine regions of Tyrol and its neighboring region Bavaria, where the oak wood would come from.

The characteristics of this style are the emphasis on emotions through the 'movement' through the outfit, with a voluminous drape, slightly wavy and turned, like a mother who cradles her young child with a dancing dance to calm him. Emotion is also seen through the expressions of the faces, which are more open, smiling, establishing a warmer and more human grace, like that of a mother to her son. That’s the beauty of this popular craft, it is a craft filled with realism and humanity.

Lovers of devotional objects and believers in search of maternal representation, don’t hesitate anymore! Adopt this superb representation of the Virgin Mary and the Child Jesus without further ado.
