About the Item
Impressive 22-inch ceramic wall decoration depicting the Virgin Mary and Child Jesus in glossy black, with an anchor sitting on turbulent waves. Crafted by a modernist European studio pottery artist, this piece is notably large.
The artwork's intricate details are accentuated by the reflective glaze, which brings out the precision of the Virgin Mary's portrayal, the figure of the Child Jesus, the intricacies of the drapery, as well as the anchor and the sea. The meticulous reliefs within this piece showcase the artist's extraordinary mastery of the craft.
