Important 19th Century Sculpture: The Pieta

Located in Madrid, ES

Immerse yourself in the poignant beauty of this significant carved wood and polychrome sculpture depicting the iconic scene of the Pieta. Crafted possibly in Spain during the 19th century, this artwork stands as a striking testament to sacred art and artistic mastery of the era. The sculpture, executed with exceptional quality, captures the delicacy and devotion of the Pieta scene, where the Virgin Mary cradles the body of Jesus Christ after the crucifixion. Despite some minor losses, as shown in the accompanying photos, these do not significantly diminish the value or beauty of the piece. Measuring 108x60x55 cm, including the wooden base, this sculpture possesses an imposing presence that will command attention in any space. The expressiveness of the figures and the meticulous attention to detail attest to the sculptor's talent and deep understanding of the religious theme. Whether as the centerpiece of a sacred art collection or as a standout element in a devotional space, this Pieta sculpture...

Seated Virgin with Child (Sedes Sapientiae) from the 12th Century in Spain

Located in Madrid, ES

Technique: Tempera and oil on wood Dimensions: 25 x 11 x 8 cm Description: This exceptional work from the 12th century represents the Seated Virgin with Child (Sedes Sapientiae), standing out as an artistic treasure from medieval Spain. The portrayal of the Virgin enthroned with the Child on her lap is emblematic of Romanesque art, and this particular piece is a valuable and authentic example of that era. The current polychromy belongs to the Gothic period and overlays the original Romanesque layer. It is crucial to highlight that the current state of the artwork is the original, without any cleaning interventions, imparting a unique authenticity. The work exhibits architectural characteristics typical of Romanesque art, evident in the sides of the throne. The rigidity and symmetry characteristic of this style are reflected in the firm presentation of the Baby Jesus, noticeable in his gesture while holding his son. The Virgin wears a crown, symbolizing her royal character as the Queen of Heaven and Creation. Both figures retain traces of polychromy on the face and attire, adding layers of history and authenticity. While similar Romanesque Virgin...
