About the Item

Immaculate Conception. Carved and polychrome wood, glass, silver. Portuguese school, 18th century. Sculpture made of wood showing a young Mary, with her hands together in front of her chest in an attitude of prayer, and standing on a cloud, from which emerge winged angel heads and on which there is a “false” (a silver crescent moon with a face on both sides). Dressed in a tunic, the cloak appears waving, the garments decorated with flowers, waves, etc., combining polychromy and gilding. She has a crown, in silver in its colour, with architectural and plant elements of strong classicist influence, which does not show contrasting marks. Under the cloud, there is a rectangular pedestal, made of gilded wood and decorated with architectural and plant elements in relief. Note that it is also worked on the back, where a label appears after the completion of the work. Given its iconography, it is believed to be a carving of the Immaculate Conception. It is one of the most common models for depicting the Virgin in Spanish Baroque art, and is also common in other schools (where reference is usually made to the Virgin of the Conception or the Immaculate Conception). This devotion presents an iconography whose development began in Spanish Gothic art, responding to a desire to highlight the purity of the Mother of Christ. In its beginnings, it presented details of the Vision of Saint John on Patmos and elements belonging to the Marian Litanies, becoming simpler over time. Stylistically, the movement and certain details of the mantle show a certain influence of Rococo, an artistic movement that originated in France (where it developed between 1730 and 1760) and which spread from there to other European schools. There is evidence of the existence of a sculpture quite similar to the one present in the Portuguese Nossa Senhora da Vila, Nossa Senhora do Bispo e Silveiras (officially: União de Freguesias de Nossa Senhora da Vila, Nossa Senhora do Bispo e Silveiras), Évora, dated to the second half of the 18th century and considered to be from the Portuguese school, although no further details have been found about its authorship. This sculpture also has a base similar to that of this sculpture. · Size: 21x15x56 cm International Buyers – Please Note: for those articles that need Export Permits (those older than 100 years), the obtaining of the Permit will be processed without additional expenses (if you choose the seller sends it to you), but the period for the obtention of it may vary from 10 to 35 days.

Silver Incense Boat 'naviculae', Possibly Portugal, 18th Century

Located in Madrid, ES

Naveta. Silver. Possibly Portugal, 18th century. Base with counterweight. With hallmarks. Naveta with oval foot decorated with relief elements and moldings, balustrade foot and body with light boat shape, presenting a hinged lid in the front, a widening in the lower area towards the foot and a decoration distributed throughout the exterior base of rockery motifs and plant elements (the same theme is presented on the foot and base) on a background of chopped luster, with an angel's head on two wings in relief towards the peak, accompanied by plant elements (the which protrude from the edge of the lid). Although the shape of the piece follows in general lines the most usual prototypes in these incense containers used in the liturgy, it is necessary to indicate that it was more frequent to find them more similar to a ship. The naveta's belonging to the influence of Rococo is clear both for the lines of the object and for the decoration to which reference has already been made (pebbles, plant elements with movement, volutes with pronounced curves, contrasts between concave and convex lines ... ), as well as it is possible to find some points in common with Portuguese works (presents an auction with an angel head in relief a silver naveta with a spoon by Leandro Gagliardi made in Rome between 1744 and 1750 that is preserved in the Museum of Sao Roque of Lisbon in Portugal, compare with the silver plated censer that the same master made between 1749 and 1751 for the Chapel of San Juan Bautista of the Church of San Roque in Lisbon). The contrast marks present in the upper part of the naveta (the "capitalized" letters in a rectangular space), although it should also be noted that this work does not follow the most striking typology of navetas related to this center (naveta de 18th century silver from the Church of Alcántara de Maranhao, Brazil; naveta by Sebastiao Bernardes dos Santos, dated 1747 from Sé do Funchal, which is kept in the Museu de Arte Sacra Do Funchal in Madeira Portugal...
