CHILD. POLYCHROMED WOOD. 17TH CENTURY.

Infant. Carved and polychrome wood. XVII century. Polychrome wood carving that shows a half-naked child, accompanied by a cloth waving in the wind that partially covers him, and standing with a marked contrapposto, movement softened by the position of the hands and the expression of the face, with the head bowed . It is possible that it is a sculpture of the Child Jesus, given the resemblance it presents to sculptural groups or painted scenes made up of various characters (more Child with Saint John than Holy Family) of the Baroque.
