Cabinet - Gilt wood - Altar display - 87 cm

Baroque altarpiece shrine in carved and gilded wood, Italy, 18th century. Elegant structure with shaped columns, rich ornamentation with vegetal motifs, and refined original gilding. In the center stands out a sunburst motif with a face, an iconic element typical of Baroque sacred art. Intended to house a devotional statue or a reliquary, it preserves a captivating patina of time that enhances its authenticity. It shows signs of use, wear to the gilding, and restorations/integrations compatible with its age. A piece of notable interest for collectors of sacred art and ecclesiastical furnishings.
