About the Item

An 18th-century Italian sculpture of a draped Madonna, masterfully carved in polychrome and gilded wood. The Virgin, gracefully veiled, holding the infant Jesus on her lap with a stunning relief of cherubs, enhancing the overall sacred atmosphere of the piece. The scale and presence of this work elevate it far beyond devotional function—it stands as a sculptural masterpiece. The craftsmanship reveals extraordinary skill in anatomy, drapery, and expression, exemplifying the artistic excellence of late Baroque religious woodcarving in Italy. The figure and its pedestal are crafted as two distinct elements - are not attached and can be displayed separately. This museum-worthy sculpture is imposing yet intimate, with a harmonious balance between volume and ornament. Measurements: Total height with base: 170 cm (66.9 in) Figure only: 130 cm H × 68 cm L × 46 cm D (51.2 × 26.8 × 18.1 in) Wooden base: 40 cm H × 68 cm L × 68 cm D (15.7 × 26.8 × 26.8 in) Take into account that the colors on the items may vary depending on the type of lighting and the type of screen from which you see the images.
