Large Carved Wood Figure of Saint On Wood Base
The Meekins Collection
The figure is finely carved in the round and retains original gilding, lending richness and depth to the surface. Identified as Reliques De Première Classe De Saint Wolfgang, the work represents a devotional reliquary honoring Saint Wolfgang. The gilded surface enhances its sacred presence and reflects the importance of first class relics within Catholic tradition.
Mounted on its original wood base, the sculpture displays strong proportions and careful attention to detail, characteristic of early 19th century Italian ecclesiastical carving. The surviving gilding and age appropriate wear contribute to the authenticity and visual impact of the piece. A commanding and devotional work.
