About the Item
Cast in France circa 1960, this elegant mid-century bronze sculpture depicts the Virgin Mary in quiet devotion, hands pressed in prayer and eyes gently lowered. The stylized, elongated form reflects the minimalist aesthetics of mid-century religious art, with smooth, flowing lines and a calm, introspective expression.
The surface is finished in a warm bronze patina, subtly highlighted along the contours of her robe and veil, emphasizing the purity and vertical grace of the composition. Fully modeled and solidly cast, the piece is designed for freestanding display and remains stable on any flat surface.
Measuring 25 inches high by 5.5 inches wide and 4 inches deep, the antique sculpture is in excellent condition with minor surface wear consistent with age. A striking devotional figure and a fine example of mid-century French bronze work, perfect for a console, mantel, or contemplative corner.
