Bidspirit auction | Seated Virgin. Andalusian School. 17th

Seated Virgin. Andalusian School. 17th Century - Terracotta and glued fabric. Image of the Virgin seated on a high-backed throne, dressed in a pinkish tunic and a blue-green mantle decorated with gold motifs. The figure, with well-proportioned proportions and a serene face, displays a warm polychromy and naive yet expressive modeling, typical of popular devotional production. The open hands, frontal gesture, and rigid composition link it to processional or domestic sculpture of the period. The terracotta modeling technique with glued fabric demonstrates economic resources and artisanal execution focused on everyday devotion, in the Andalusian tradition of religious imagery. The piece maintains its iconic power through formal simplicity and vivid colors. 18 x 10 x 10 cm.
