Carved Wooden Sculpture of Saint Christopher with Child – Wall Bracket – 33.5 cm – Europe – Mid 20th Century (ca. 1950–1970) Carved wooden sculpture depicting Saint Christopher carrying the Christ Child, mounted on a shaped wooden wall bracket. Saint Christopher is shown striding forward while supporting himself with a staff. The Christ Child sits on his shoulder, raising one hand in blessing and holding an orb in the other, symbolising dominion over the world. The dynamic pose and expressive carving reflect the traditional iconography of the saint as protector of travellers. The figure is carved from solid wood and mounted on a separate wooden back panel with integrated shelf support. The sculpture has a warm, light brown tone with visible wood grain. The drapery is deeply carved, and the facial expressions are detailed and characterful.
