AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Very beautiful image of Sint-Willibrord. A missionary from the 7th to the 8th century AD, he was canonized in the 9th century. His attribute: water well, refers to the act of drawing water in times of need. You can find more information on the internet; it is a fascinating story both culturally and politically.

The sculpture has a lot of character and is characteristic of the sculptor Jan Borreman I, active in Brussels from the 15th to early 16th century. He was one of the best sculptors of the Low Countries.
The image is glued to the wall and is in a state of aging.

It is a beautiful historical object and ideal for collectors or historians.

Success!
