Mi-relief en bois doré et polychromé, représentant saint-Roch. Espagne , 16e S.
About the Item
An important bas-relief in carved wood with traces of gilding, in an architectural frame with two cherubs in the spandrels, representing Saint Roch.
He is considered to be the patron saint of dogs, because legend has it that one of them licked his wounds and brought him bread when he was suffering from the plague, far from any habitation.
Originally from Montpellier, where he was born in the 14th century, he used his knowledge as a former medical student and his thaumaturgical skills to help the poor and sick.
Beautiful polychromy and needle goldwork.
Needs thorough cleaning.
A few chips.
