About the Item
Spanish Gilded and Polychrome Wooden Cherub Sculpture, circa 1930
Delicate Spanish carved wooden cherub, gilded and polychrome painted, circa 1930. A devotional piece with Baroque revival influence, richly patinated with age.
Charming hand-carved wooden sculpture of a cherub, executed in Spain around 1930. The figure is depicted seated on a rounded base, playing a small wind instrument, with delicately modeled features and childlike expression. The surface combines gilding and polychrome paint, now softly worn, giving the piece a rich, time-earned patina.
This sculpture reflects the continued Spanish tradition of religious and decorative carving in the Baroque revival style, which remained popular in ecclesiastical and domestic contexts well into the early 20th century. Its modest scale makes it a versatile decorative object, equally suited for private devotion, collection of devotional antiques, or as a distinctive accent in eclectic interiors.
