About the Item

Description: A Flemish Statue of Crowned Virgin Mary with Child Jesus, 17th Century, polychromed wood, silver crowns Statue: Crowned Madonna and Child Object Type: Statuette Artist, Sculptor / Creator: Unknown Place of Origin: Flanders Period: 17th Century Style: Renaissance Materials and Techniques: Polychromed wood, Silver Categories: Christianity Dimensions: H. 55 cm D. 15 cm W. 19 cm History: The Madonna and Child is one of the most easily recognisable, most frequently produced themes in the history of Art and has been depicted by many famous artists, including Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and Raphael. The word Madonna is derived from the Italian 'ma donna,' or 'my lady' and is used to describe Mary, the mother of Christ. The Madonna and Child depict a loving mother and son, which is a symbol of hope, faith, and love and represents the love and bond between mother and child, and is a symbol of hope and protection. Purity or virginity is represented by the color of clothing of Madonna. The color blue symbolises purity, virginity, and royalty. Physical Description: A magnificent 17th Century statue in polychromed wood of standing Madonna and Child. Virgin Mary is holding a small staff that is often shown in the hands of a king or queen. In Her left arm She is holding Her Son, Jesus Christ who is holding the World in His left hand to show that He is our Heavenly king on Earth and His Mother is our Queen. She wears a tight fitting golden dress with blue sleeves; over this is a blue mantle; Her mantle is lined red and is with an ochre gold border. The flesh is painted in natural colours and Her long hair lies over both shoulders. The Child Jesus wears a blue long sleeves dress with a golden border. With His right hand He gives a blessing and represents Trinitarian love. In addition to signifying a blessing or that the Lord is speaking, this position conveys doctrinal truth, the three uplifted fingers depict the unity of God in the Holy Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). Historical Significance: The statue of Crowned Virgin Mary with Child Jesus is a rare specimen because of its physical condition and retained colours, original silver crowns and a small staff.
