Early 1900 Hand Carved Marble Statue / Sculpture of Mother Mary w. Cross & Book

About the Item

Beautiful antique and all handcrafted, solid Carrara marble sculpture. This rare work of religious art is entirely hand carved out of white marble. We are not certain, but we feel that this striking sculpture depicts Mother Mary. Her kind and serene facial features, her tiara and the fact that she is holding a cross and a book lead us to believe that the artist/sculptor is showing us Mary who is passing on the legacy of her son Jesus. The beauty and rarity of this piece is not only about who Mary was (and for many still is), but also in the striking angelic qualities and the fine details in her serene face and in her perfect body posture. Her beautifully draped cloth is another fine feature and the white marble, in our view, also emphasizes her purity. All these qualities make this divine sculpture an absolute joy to own and look at. This religious, spiritual and devotional work of art will bring peace, calm and a good atmosphere to the space she is in. Our fair price for this antique sculpture includes perfect packing and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days. Maximum height x width x depth: 20.75 x 6 x 5 inches.

  • Early 1900 and Very Fine Quality Hand Carved Wall Crucifix / Jesus on the Cross
    Located in Lisse, NL
    Sizeable crucifix with a finer quality carved corpus of Christ. Looking at Christ like this and thinking about the gruesome way in which He lost His earthly life, the crucifix (in our view) is a symbol of what 'telling people the truth' can lead to. 'The truth does not have many friends' is something I once read. Looking at what is going on in the world today, in most countries that still is the case. However, we feel that we (humans), nevertheless, are still becoming more loving, civilized, empathetic and self-conscious. Mind you, this good size wall crucifix dates from the early 1900s and the cruelties that people did to one another for acting or being different than 'normal' in those days, in most cases were far worse than what we see in this day and age. Looking at Christ on the cross with this in mind, we have come along way and we are slowly, but surely evolving in the right direction. Maybe it is just some of our 'leaders' who are lacking behind. Christ on the cross should therefor also be a reminder of someone who has lived and foreseen all this and who should therefor always be a beacon of hope and light when things are not going our way, yet. What attracted us most in this work of religious art are the quality details of His anatomy and the warm patina of this finely carved corpus. The facial features of this superb corpus of Christ reveal...
