Description from the seller

Monumental Holy Trinity in radiant glory - carved wood, polychrome, gilded and patinated - 19th century

Imposing wall sculpture depicting the Holy Trinity according to a traditional iconography

God the Father, sovereign and blessing figure, the Redeemer Christ, and the dove of the Holy Spirit, united in a powerful and highly expressive theological composition. The sculpted group rests on an important stormy cloud, finely modeled and enhanced with gold highlights, supporting a symbolic globe painted green.

The whole is surrounded by a circular glory with radiant rays, fully sculpted and gilded, giving the work a spectacular visual presence and a strong liturgical dimension.

The exceptional size of this sculpture makes it a rare piece on the market

Dimensions of the sculpted group alone: Height: about 105 cm – Width: about 80 cm – Depth: about 37 cm
Overall dimensions: approximately 137 × 137 × 37 cm

Through its monumental proportions, this work was intended for an altarpiece, a chapel, or a church decor, and today retains a major decorative and spiritual impact, perfectly suited to a large wall, a private chapel, or an interior of character.

Work from the late 19th century or the very early 20th century, in a late Baroque style, with old polychromy, gold leaf gilt, and patina aging consistent with the age and function of the object.
