About the Item
Alabaster sculptural group depicting a pair of begging children belonging to the second half of the 19th century.
The work is of great value and sculptural quality as the artist manages to capture the drama of the act and stop it in its most poignant moment.
The woman is depicted as she extends her hand while her little brother remains squatting on her lap.
The care and precision of the details, the fineness of the face, the robes are of the highest quality.
