Virgin of Pity in carved wood, hollowed out... - Lot 157 - Vasari Auction
Virgin of Pity in carved wood, hollowed out back. This moving sculpture of beautiful workmanship shows the dignity of the Virgin in her grief. She holds the body of her dead son lying on her legs between her arms. Mary is dressed in a long veil that hides her hair, which covers a long dress with a square neckline. The body of Christ is treated with great care not to alter the physical beauty. Work of the 16th century with visible restorations and accidents. Resting on a later circular molded base.
