Religious Bas-relief - Virgin And Child
Religious bas-relief - Virgin and Child, France, 20th century.
Terracotta bas-relief with a turquoise glaze, depicting the Virgin holding the Child, both with halos. The modeling is deliberately stylized, with elongated lines and expressive drapery, characteristic of modern 20th-century sacred art. The piece has a beautiful sculptural presence, enhanced by the contrast between the bluish glaze and the terracotta left exposed on the subject. On the reverse, there is an old incised mark (cross and letters), likely a workshop mark or symbolic sign, and not an academic signature. Unsigned work, quality craftsmanship, probably from a French workshop, intended for devotion. #sacredart #ceramics
