She stands upon a cloud-form base, following the traditional iconography of the Immaculate Conception. The sculpture retains its original polychromy with attractive traces of gilding and estofado decoration throughout. Particularly appealing is the expressive devotional character of the piece, enhanced by its generous scale and vibrant color palette. The figure is crowned with an antique metal crown that complements the sculpture’s historic appearance. The work displays the natural wear expected from centuries of religious use, including losses to the polychromy, age cracks, surface wear and minor separations to the wood, all contributing to its authentic antique character. A highly decorative and evocative example of Spanish Colonial religious art, equally suitable for collectors of devotional sculpture and for sophisticated interior design projects. Dimensions Height: 39.37 in. (100 cm) Width: 27.56 in. (70 cm) Depth: 11.81 in. (30 cm) Good condition consistent with age and use. Attractive wear to the original polychromy and gilding, with age-related craquelure, minor losses and separations typical of an 18th-century devotional sculpture. The piece remains structurally stable and displays exceptionally well. See less
