Description
Large sculpture of Saint Anthony with the Child Jesus, French or Flemish Baroque School, 17th century Carved and polychromed wood. Dimensions: 145 × 71 × 40 cm. A large-scale sculpture depicting Saint Anthony of Padua holding the Christ Child, a motif widely used in Flemish Baroque devotional iconography. The work is notable for the expressive power of the faces and the meticulous detail in the folds of the habit, characteristic features of Northern European religious sculpture. The whole exudes serenity and fervour, with a balanced combination of elegance and naturalism. It retains a beautiful patina and traces of the original polychromy. An intact piece of excellent quality and great spiritual value. Provenance: Flemish private collection. Lot held in an international warehouse (within the EU). Intra-EU shipping: no import duties apply within the EU. An export licence from the country of origin may be required.
