Chairish$40,041
An extraordinary sculpture of Our Lady of Sorrows, attributed to Francisco Salzillo (Murcia, 1707–1783), carved and polychromed in the 18th century. The image presents a face of intense, yet restrained, drama, with carved and polychromed eyes, tears, and a slightly open mouth, reflecting the sensibility of the Murcian master. She wears antique textiles with lace, accompanied by rosaries in silver and jet. She is crowned with a magnificent original 18th-century silver crown, a piece of goldsmithing that further elevates its stature. The entire piece is preserved in its original mahogany display case, constituting a work of exceptional historical, devotional, and artistic value. An outstanding example of Spanish Baroque sculpture, it is of great interest to international collectors and galleries. 60x44 + Headband 22x31 total virgin 72cm Display case - 119 high, 83 wide, 49 deep, console: 95 high, 100 wide, 52 deep
