Statue, Notre Dame des Victoires - 46 cm - Plaster, Paint

Notre-Dame des Victoires – Large religious statue – probably France – ca. 1930-1950

Beautiful and decorative large statue of Notre-Dame des Victoires (Our Lady of Victory) with the Christ Child. Mary stands on clouds, surrounded by heads of angels, while the Child rests on a globe. The original polychromy in soft pastel colors with gilded accents gives the statue a warm and authentic appearance. The designation "Notre Dame des Victoires" refers to the well-known Marian devotion that originates in France.

The statue is made of polychromed plaster, a commonly used material for quality devotional statues from the first half of the 20th century. The expressive faces, graceful drapery, and rich gilding make it a particularly decorative collectible object.

Condition
Good vintage condition, appropriate for its age. Normal signs of use and aging, light wear to the polychromy and gilding. No major cracks or restorations visible. Examine the photos closely; they are part of the description.
