Icon Like Art Deco Wall Plaque of Young Jesus, Joseph & Mary by Gerard Gerrits
About the Item
Beautifully handcrafted and serene work of religious art from 1936.
Handcrafted in 1936 by Artist Gerard Gerrits this wall sculpture was a fairwell gift to the departing president of one of the Saint Jacob foundations here in Holland. Much like for example the Saint Vincent organisations around the globe, these Saint Jacob foundations would (and still do) take care of the needy and elderly of society. This serene work of art depicts Joseph, Mary and a young boy Jesus, all with gilt halos. Carpenter Joseph is standing by his carpenter's vice, Mary is sitting down, holding what looks like needlework and at the centre stands Jesus holding a tablet with the 10 commandments. What we love about this work is its tranquil look and feel, its shape, the colors and also the Arab motifs on either side. With a part of the skyline of possibly Nazareth in the background this image places Jesus in the environment where he grew up as a child. All original and in truly excellent condition this handcrafted work of religious art with its meaningful and serene image is a real joy to behold and we expect it to find a good home again soon.

- Rare Set of Christian Art Deco Bronze Jesus, Mary & Angel Wall Plaques by NorgaLocated in Lisse, NLRare set of three, good size and mint condition works of religious art. This group of three bronze works of art (deco) all depict biblical scenes and they can be placed and worshipped in all kinds of settings. Meaningful and perfectly handcrafted works of religious art like these were mostly used in monasteries, private homes, but also on the more expensive cemeteries. The one on the left depicts Mother Mary and John the Baptist as they mourn over the body of Christ right after He was taken from the cross. The bronze plaque in the middle, we believe, depicts the third station where Jesus falls for the first time. The third bronze depicts a beautiful Arch Angel kneeling...Category

- Antique Icon like Gilt Bronze Mary and Child Jesus Plaque over a Holy Water FontLocated in Lisse, NLMeaningful and perfectly hand-crafted antique church relic. This religious work of art dates from the earliest years of the 20th century and you could not wish for a better condition antique. This finest of holy water font plaques could not be in better condition, but that is also because it was all handcrafted out of the best materials only. Even the hand sawn, square nuts on the back are gilt. And the cross-like hook with the French Gothic fleur-de-lis ends with the ring on top (for easy mounting this gem to your wall) is another detail that shows us that no expense was spared when this antique was hand-crafted all those years ago. Whenever we find religious antiques of this quality and excellent condition, they usually were made for and used in either a church or a monastery (also, because that is where the budget was for the best quality pieces). The quality and the finish of this church relic really is among the best we have ever seen, but the quality of and the details in the sereen Mother Mary...Category
