Sculpture - Madonna with Child - 43 cm - Antique - Wood - 1750-1800

Antique 18th-century sculpture, height 43 cm, carved wooden Virgin Mary with Child Jesus and a bunch of grapes in her hand.

Madonna with Child (also known as Madonna and Child) is a common and iconic theme in Christian art, depicting Mary holding her son Jesus, symbolizing motherly love, care, and the sacred bond between mother and child, with the red cloak representing Jesus' love and suffering, and the enclosed garden symbolizing her virginity. Famous examples include Michelangelo's Madonna with Child in Brugge, one of his few works outside Italy.
