About the Item

18th Century Carved and Decorated Figure of an Archangel, circa 1780, a splendid hand carved and polychromed kneeling male figure with long wavy brown hair pulled back, dressed in a long blue robe or cassock draped in artful folds, a very serious, intent look upon his flesh toned face. A masterful Rococo ecclesiastical carving in the Renaissance manner. The statue is in very strong, stable condition. The missing limbs were almost certainly wings; their absence feels natural and gives a powerful impression of classical antiquity. The well worn paint is also in strong and stable condition, and has developed the soft, warm patina that only three centuries can provide. The figure was carved to kneel, but there is also an old hook eye on the back suggesting that the figure may also have been suspended from above. It is mounted on a modern ebonized stand.
