Description from the seller

Polychrome wooden sculpture depicting an angel in flight, from the Baroque era, datable to the first half of the 18th century (circa 1700–1750).

Work made in carved and painted wood, with evident traces of original polychromy and natural craquelure due to age.

The angel is shown in a dynamic position, with arms open and wings spread, a typical decorative element of altars or ecclesiastical furnishings in Northern Italy (Lombardy/Emilia area).

Dimensions: height about 57 cm.

Conservation status: good in relation to its age, with normal signs of wear and some small losses of color (visible in the photo).

Present back mounting system, confirming original use on an ecclesiastical structure.

Authentic object, not a reproduction.

Ideal for collectors or as a decorative element with great historical charm.
