German or Flemish school of the 17th century Saint... - Lot 178 - Daguerre
German or Flemish school of the 17th century Saint John on Calvary Alabaster statuette. Accidents and restoration. H. 26.7 cm high On a marble base H. 11.6 cm high Head raised, frowning eyebrows and hand holding his mantle resting on his heart, Saint John, Jesus' favourite apostle, was standing at the foot of the cross. In a calm and very interior attitude, he reflected a modest pain, only animated by the series of vertical folds and his long wavy hair. The slightly contrapposto attitude and the slender, curved shape of the material bear witness to the practice of a skilful artist, accustomed to working with ivory.
