Virgin of Pity in terracotta. Mary, seated on a rock, is hol - Lot 191
Virgin of Pity in terracotta. Mary, seated on a rock, is holding her dead son in front of her, lying on her knees; tears are flowing from her eyes, her head is raised, covered with a veil forming a mantle, one side of which is pulled back to the front. Christ's head is turned upside down, his left arm falling to the ground, giving the representation of the scene the dramatic dimension of the moment. Early 18th century, entourage of François Girardon H. 27,5 cm (small lacks notably to the right hand of the Virgin, the left of the Christ)
