FRANCE ou ALLEMAGNE
Saint character

Sculpture in walnut wood 

Traces of plaster and polychromy.

The Saint presents a gentle face with half-closed eyes and seems to be plunged in a peaceful meditation. He is covered by a heavy cloak held over his chest by a large rose-shaped fibula that falls in wide, sunken folds over his right leg and blossoms into beak-like folds along his left leg.

His missing left arm probably held a staff while his right hand carried an object that has now disappeared.

The wooden base is attached with screws. 

H. 51 cm - Width : 20 cm.

Important missing parts, accidents and cracks.
