Flemish Virgin And Child Figure, Circa 1700
Flemish Virgin And Child Figure, Circa 1700
Beautiful figure of the Virgin holding the Child and the globe of royalty. The elegance of the elongated figure combined with a sophisticated drapery show a work of the Flemish School in the late XVII th, early XVIII th century. Carved in hardwood, probably walnut, that the artist chiseled in a very gentle manner. A hole on the top of the Virgin's head show the former presence of a crown, now lost, which was probably in silver. The arms of the Christ, his feet, and the hand of the Virgin supporting him are carved in a different hardwood. The head of the Christ reattached. The sculpture is mounted on a larger base.
H: 38 cm - 43 cm with stand.
