Item Details
Description
Spanish school of the 15th century.
Carved and polychrome wood.
Measurements: 55 x 19 x 15 cm.
Devotional image carved in polychrome wood. In Romanesque sculpture the language is purely conceptual and works on the basis of symbols and conventions accepted by all. In this sense, the anatomy is synthetic, representative rather than a reflection of the natural, as is the treatment of the face. The carvings are mainly for didactic purposes, and their images are conceived as a visual narrative, which must always be clearly legible. Our lot depicts the Virgin: Mary gazes at her forehead, in sorrow and, although her hands are not preserved, she would join her hands. Her hair is covered by a veil. The play of volumes of her mantle, already advanced with respect to the Romanesque, incipiently Renaissance, is remarkable.
