Description from the seller
Christmas group – carved wood with remnants of painting – possibly Spain – probably circa 1900–1940
Professionally shipped – more than 1000 five-star reviews worldwide.
Deeply carved relief depicting the Nativity and the Adoration by the shepherds, executed after late Gothic examples. Mary kneels by the Christ Child, surrounded by Joseph, praying figures and a shepherd with a staff. Behind them are the ox and the donkey under a stable with an elaborated roof and birds on the ceiling. The angular drapery folds and the figures at different heights give the scene depth. On the clothing remains a hint of a former, presumably uniform painting. According to the previous owner originating from Spain.
Height 28 cm; with numerous woodworm holes. Treated by freezing.
Please look carefully at the photos, they are part of the description.
Sent with track & trace.
