Description
A large carved stone Virgin and Child with a significant amount of the original polychromy still intact. Standing, her head adorned with a floral wreath, the Virgin holds the Child seated on her left arm; he has a gentle face with almond-shaped eyes, prominent cheekbones and a mouth forming a slight smile;she is dressed in a gown and a veil forming a cloak, revealing the wavy hair that frames her face; her gown is gathered at the top by a belt carved with small flowers. The Child, dressed in a long tunic, was probably meant to be holding a piece of fruit or a bird in one hand and clutching his mother’s cloak with the other. The child’s head has been reattached; the hands are missing. 13th–14th century. Dimensions: 104 x 40 x 33 cm Damage and restoration to the neck
