Portuguese Baroque Sculpture of Jesus, 18th Century

About the Item

An 18th-century Portuguese Baroque sculpture portraying the Infant Jesus, hand-carved in polychrome wood. This religious piece dates between 1770 and 1790, preserves its serene blue eyes and softly blushed cheeks. Standing gracefully at 36 cm including the original base and silver halo, the figure rests upon a podium that enhances its reverent posture. The sculpture alone measures 27 cm in height. What makes this piece particularly unique, it's a testament to the religious artistry of the period. This sculpture is more than an object—it's a relic of Portuguese devotion and baroque elegance, lovingly preserved across centuries.
