Immaculate Virgin. Spanish School. 18th Century. Polychrome wood carving. Dimensions: 60 x 24 x 20 cm. This sculpture in the round depicts the Virgin Mary in prayer, standing on a base with three cherub heads carved in relief. The figure, with its serene face and enveloping mantle, reflects the characteristics of the late Spanish Baroque, with its soft modeling and profound devotional expression. The flowing folds and natural gesture reinforce the sense of spiritual contemplation. Its meticulous craftsmanship and iconography link it to Castilian or Andalusian workshops of the 18th century, where religious imagery achieved great expressiveness and technical refinement.
Immaculate Virgin. Indo-Portuguese School. 18th Century. Polychrome wood carving. Dimensions: 36 x 12 x 12 cm. This sculpture depicts the Immaculate Virgin in a frontal pose and prayerful attitude, resting on a base adorned with carved cherub heads. The style, characterized by its naiveté and devotional approach, reflects the 18th-century Indo-Portuguese tradition, a product of the syncretism between Iberian Baroque imagery and the religious craftsmanship of South India. The elongated face, the flowing mantle, and the gold color with traces of original polychromy lend the piece a unique spiritual expressiveness. The treatment of the volumes, with its austere and direct modeling, reflects the influence of missionary workshops established in Goa or Cochin. The piece embodies the pious sensibility and aesthetic fusion characteristic of Luso-Oriental colonial sculpture.
Immaculate Virgin. Italian School. 17th Century. Carved and polychromed wood. Dimensions: not specified. This sculpture in the round depicts the Immaculate Virgin standing on clouds and cherub heads, with her hands joined in prayer and her gaze lifted. The drapery, rendered in ample folds and embellished with gilding, lends an upward movement that reinforces the figure's spirituality. The polychromy retains warm tones and burnished gold, highlighting the expressive quality of the serene and devout face. A representative work of the 17th-century Italian Baroque school, in which Marian exaltation is materialized in an image of great devotional and aesthetic power.
