Religious Sculpture - Renaissance Statue Virgin In Polychrome Majesty - 15 Th France

Stone statue - Virgin and child Renaissance period (15th-16th centuries) 

This remarkable sandstone sculpture, dating from the French Renaissance,
Features the Virgin Mary in a solemn posture. The piece retains residual traces of period polychromy, testifying to its authenticity and age. 

The Virgin is represented in majesty dressed in a long, elegantly draped dress, decorated with beaked pleats and windings. Her trapezoid neckline frames a calm and serene face, slightly inclined towards the Child Jesus whom she affectionately holds on his knees.
She wears a crown decorated with a border of flowers (see photo details), the top of which has been trimmed, probably following revolutionary events.

The Child Jesus, animated by a slight movement forward, seems to want to interact with the faithful,
(more realistic scene representative of the style of this period and cutting with previous hieratic styles and bringing together symbolism, anatomy and classical continuity).

Both hold a sphere, symbolizing the world, in a gesture of sharing and divine protection. This scene reflects the intimate relationship between the Virgin and her Son, a central theme in Western religious art.

This statue embodies both the majesty and maternal tenderness of Mary, while foreshadowing the more refined and mannerist traits of the Renaissance. A work of Art, steeped in history, symbolizing both Marian devotion and the grace of religious sculpture.

Visible traces of wear, notably on the missing arm of the Child Jesus and some chips behind the sculpture. (statue torn off and falling on the right side certainly), 
In no way alter the artistic quality of the work. On the contrary, they highlight its rich history marked by wars, peasant revolts, as well as revolutionary suppressions.

This moving piece is not only a work of great historical and religious importance, but it also constitutes a decorative element of choice for an elegant interior.

Its timeless beauty, accompanied by subtle traces of polychromy,
Will bring a touch of serenity and spirituality to your living space.
