"Statue Of An Angel In Cartapesta Or Paper Mache. 18th Century"
Beautiful angel in cartapesta, or papier-mâché, Italy, 18th century.The drape is particularly beautiful, the graceful and elegant attitude giving a strong impression of movement.
Due to their fragility, 18th century cartapesta objects are rare.
This one, although having lost its gilding of which some traces remain, has fully retained its charm and finesse.
Remains of gilding, missing hands.
