Lot description
circa 1450-1460 modeled in high-relief, the Virgin embracing the Christ Child wrapped in a white and gold embroidered swaddling cloth over a red cloth, the Child wearing a coral necklace and wristband, the Virgin with centrally parted hair covered by red and blue striped cambric, her blue scapula adorned with raised seraphim and enveloping both her and the Child, her eyes slightly down-cast in a melancholic expression, her golden dress embroidered with stylized pomegranate pattern, the group flanked by two laughing seraphim and set against a blue sky with golden rays emanating from clouds, with painted wood tabernacle frame.
