Mother Mary Madonna Wood Carved Polychrome Santo Santos, 18th-19th Century

About the Item

A beautiful hand-carved wood Santo of the Madonna, Mary mother of Christ. The piece clearly shows signs of weathering, use, and age and was likely placed outside a church or shrine for some years. The paint has faded leaving a quite attractive natural wood patina and wonderful organic sculptural shape. Would be a great addition to any South American/ European Santos collection or eye-catching stand-alone accent piece. Dimensions: 14.5" high, 5" wide, 3" deep.
