Baroque Putto In Gilded Wood
A charming cherub carved in gilt wood and finished with gold leaf. The dynamic and theatrical pose is typically Baroque. The slightly turned body, with the outstretched left leg and arm, suggests a suspended flight. The round face is framed by thick, curly hair. The drapery around the hips, sculpted with deep folds, catches the light and creates striking chiaroscuro contrasts thanks to the gilding.
