A Very Large Virgin and Child ( 49 inches) , Champagne, circa 1500

About the Item

A Very Large Virgin and Child in walnut wood, carved in the round, trampling on Eve biting into the apple. The theme of the Virgin and Child is the most represented in all Christian art, whereas the infancy of Jesus is almost totally elided by the canonical evangelists. This representation is probably the result of an archaic theme (Isis suckling Harpocrates, the child Horus). Numerous representations of the “woman with child” can be found in most of the world's cultures, including pre-Christian Europe. A very fine presence, both in terms of the quality of the sculpture and its dimensions (height 1.20 m / 49 inches) The Child holds a dove, the Virgin a scepter. Walnut wood, waxed finish with hot wax, in good condition. From Champagne workshops, late 15th/early 16th century. A certificate enclosed of a deceased antique dealer Michel Cohen once at the head of the well known antique galerie Reine Margot in the 6th arrondissement and after moved to the Places des Vosges in Paris Galerie Mythes et Legendes. Excellent provenance.
