Distinct Hand Carved Art Deco Sculpture of a Religious Man
About the Item
Distinct Hand Carved Art Deco Sculpture of a Religious Man with child. Early 20th century.
Distinct and skillfully hand-carved art deco wood sculpture of a religious man with child. Very art deco with sharp lines and the use of 'en-profile' in depicting a human resembles art deco art works by - for example - Jan Toorop.
The hand-carved sculpture shows great details like the folds in the religious habit, the hair and the overall proportions. And don't forget his feet and his sandals. Very thin and delicately executed, this wood carving is the work of a very skilled artist. A joy for the eye and great as a religious object but also appealing for the keen art deco lover.
Great vintage quality.
