A carved wooden devotional statue of the Virgin Mary with the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart, displayed in an architecturally designed wooden niche.
The Virgin is depicted standing, wearing a long robe and a cloak that falls in soft folds.
She points with her right hand to her heart, which rests on her chest.
The intentionally expressive carving retains a beautiful antique patina with gilt highlights.
The statue is placed beneath a semicircular arch, supported by two small columns and surmounted by a cross.
The architectural features are punctuated with gilt elements that highlight the capitals, the arch, and the base.
The back of the niche is a later addition.
On the base, an engraved brass plaque bears the inscription:
"Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart, Pray for us."
The reverse side allows one to appreciate the sculpture in the round as well as the ancient construction of the entire piece.
A beautiful and popular devotional object, made at the end of the 18th century.
