Description
Mid-14th century AD. A French limestone (probably Caen stone) figurine of the robed, girdled, cowled and seated Virgin Mary holding an orb (representing the world) in her right hand, looking at and supporting with her left hand the infant Jesus, standing on her left knee. 3.36 Kg, 26.5 cm tall. Ex old Dutch Collection. A very good example of high quality medieval statuary which would have been placed in a niche within a significant ecclesiastical building.
