About the Item

Charming 19th-century sculpture of the Christ Child, likely of French origin. The figure is finely modeled in plaster mounted on a wooden base, with a warm, multi-colored patina that enhances its devotional character. The child stands barefoot on a cloud-like base, holding a bunch of grapes and a stalk of wheat—symbols of the Eucharist—adding depth to its religious significance. This piece offers a serene and graceful presence, ideal for collectors of sacred art or historical devotional objects. Dimensions: 11.5 x 12.5 cm en 44 cm tall. Condition: Light wear consistent with age, surface craquelure on the base adds to its antique charm. Free shipping worldwide
