Description from the seller
Weathered chapel statue – Our Lady of the Sacred Heart of Issoudun – plaster – France – circa 1900
Professionally shipped – more than 1,000 five-star reviews worldwide.
This large sculpture of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart depicts the special bond between Mary and Christ and refers to the Sacred Heart as a source of love and grace. Mary is portrayed as a guide and intercessor who leads people to the loving heart of Jesus.
Mary stands with her arms outstretched behind the young Christ, who is blessing and bears the Sacred Heart on his chest. Barefoot, she tramples the serpent, symbolising her victory over original sin.
Height approx. 54 cm; white-painted plaster, in clearly used and weathered condition, probably due to many years of use in a chapel or other religious setting, with general signs of age and use, local chips, flakes and paint loss, mainly on the base; Jesus' right arm was repaired in the past after being broken; signed on the back of the base, but the signature is illegible.
Please examine the photos carefully; they form part of the description.
Shipped with tracking.
