This 17th-century Flemish Baroque tabletop sculpture from Mechelen represents the Infant Jesus, arms outstretched in divine grace, blessing the viewer with serene charm.
A remarkable piece of religious art, this sculpture belongs to the School of Malines (Mechelen), celebrated for its lifelike depictions and refined craftsmanship. Carved in polychrome wood, the figure’s delicately modeled features—rosy cheeks, expressive hands, and gentle stance—embody the tenderness and spiritual intimacy sought in devotional art of the period.
The Child Jesus stands on a base and has a radiant metallic crown, symbolizing divine light.
These works were often used in altars, chapels, or private devotions, especially among Catholic families.
Perfect for collectors of sacred Flemish art, this piece captures both religious symbolism and 17th-century sculptural elegance.
