Description
Saint Joseph with the Child. Neapolitan School. 18th Century. Carved and polychromed wood with textile appliqués. Sculpture measures 40 x 20 x 10 cm; glass case 50 x 28 x 20 cm. This devotional sculpture depicts Saint Joseph holding the Child with a protective gesture, establishing an intimate and affectionate relationship between the two figures. The faces have soft and expressive features, imbued with spirituality, while the arrangement of the bodies creates a balanced and harmonious composition. The polychromy is combined with rich fabrics and lace, lending realism and intense chromatic depth. The piece, protected by a glass case, fully reflects the tradition of the 18th-century Neapolitan school, characterized by its theatricality, emotional intensity, and ability to bring the sacred scene closer to the faithful.
