Villenauxe la Grande - Porcelaine de France - Inspirée...

Elegant and rare porcelain biscuit bust depicting the face of the Virgin Mary, directly inspired by the Renaissance masterwork, Michelangelo’s Pietà (St. Peter’s Basilica, Vatican). It preserves all the finesse of the Madonna’s features, the eyes lowered in a sign of contemplation, as well as the superb drapery of her veil. The piece is made of porcelain biscuit (matte white unfired porcelain), offering a silky touch and a visual rendering of great purity, very close to Carrara marble. Precise dating: 1911 (engraved on the original mold) Presence of a raised circular stamp on the back with a central interlaced monogram (stylized letters) and the edition/mold number “1911” Amateur, Collector of Rare Religious Objects this auction is for you Happy bidding to all as with all my items a good cleaning is to be expected in order to restore the panache to which they are entitled Look carefully at the photos that are part of the description.
