European 16th Century Hand Carved Wooden Virgin Mary Polychrome Statue

About the Item

This 16th century hand-carved wooden Virgin Mary polychrome statue comes from a church in Sint-Niklaas, Belgium (Europe), and was bought directly from the church sacristan. It is made from walnut wood and her coat still shows some beautiful gold and blue polychrome elements. The round-shaped face is typical for 16th century statues. The crown on her head was attached with a 16th century hand-made nail, which is still visible (as can be seen on several pictures). The 'scepter' she holds in her hand is a loose element. The statue used to hang against the church wall, hence the fixture on her back. It is now mounted on a wooden stand. The statue obviously shows wear consistent with the age, but is still in fairly good condition. Usually, the nose and hands have broken down, which is not the case here.
