Renaissance Period Saint Bartholomew In Walnut, Circa 1600

A superb walnut wood carving, executed with great skill, depicting Saint Bartholomew, circa 1600 from Italy
The work reflects the aesthetics of the Italian Renaissance, with remarkable attention to anatomical details and clothing.
The saint is depicted in clothing characteristic of the Renaissance, richly crafted and adorned with numerous details.
His deeply expressive face is framed by a magnificent, full beard, finely carved, with each strand rendered with great precision.


The sculpture features a beautiful, warm, antique patina that highlights the reliefs and natural tones of the walnut.

This work is thus a fine example of religious sculpture in the Italian Renaissance tradition, combining finesse, expressiveness, and a wealth of detail.

In very good condition with a magnificent patina.
A unique and fascinating piece.
