Presumably Germany, 19th century
Madonna in late Gothic, French style
Reverse crafted fully plastically
Height: 137 cm
Good condition
This wood statue seems to be carved in the 19th century. The depiction of Mary with crown, the s-shape as well as the drapery folds correspond to the late Gothic style of French sculptures. Mary is holding the Child who has raised his hands in blessing gesture, on her arm. This affectionately crafted Madonna used to hold an attribute in her right hand, possibly a scepter. She is standing on a crescent and she is crushing the serpent of evil. The plinth is of octagonal form. The sculpture has been carved in several pieces and was then assembled.
The Madonna figure is in a good condition according its age with several restored parts. The hand of the Madonna and the face have been professionally remounted. The Madonna and the Child are missing the tip of the small finger of the right hand. In front and on the left side are larger cracks. The statue is 137 cm in height. (tm)
