About the Item

Splendid polychrome wooden sculpture depicting the Blessing Child Jesus, made by a Central Italian master in the 14th century. The work, 66 cm high, is distinguished by its harmonious proportions and the gentle expressiveness of the face, traits typical of late medieval production. The figure, with its solemn yet flourishing presence, retains much of its original polychromy, testifying to the artist's skill in rendering volumes and surfaces with realism. The antique patina lends additional charm, attesting to its authenticity and historical value. A fine example of medieval sacred art, of great interest to collectors and enthusiasts, capable of conveying an intense spirituality even today.
