Seven-headed dragon from the Apocalypse, carved in the round with a patina. The monstrous beast features a lean, bony body with a prominent spine, clawed legs and wings, and a long tail returning underneath; it holds out its seven menacing heads with open jaws displaying sharp teeth and a long tongue. Naturalist base. 18th/19th century H. 17 cm - L. 30 cm Modern wooden base (reglued, varnished) This heptacephalic dragon is described by Saint John in chapter 12 of the Book of Revelation: "Another sign appeared in heaven: a great dragon, fiery red, with seven heads and ten horns, and on each of the seven heads a diadem. His tail swept away a third of the stars in the sky and cast them to the earth". The most famous depiction of this dragon is that on the Apocalypse hanging in Angers, painted around 1375 (fig.). Because of its complex morphology, it is rarely depicted in sculpture.
