Description

Spanish school; c. 1940-1950. "Moses". Terracotta. It presents faults and losses. It has inscription on the base. Measurements: 25 x 10 x 7 cm. Round sculpture of devotional character representing Moses. The Scriptures tell that the prophet Moses freed his people from slavery, making them wander through the desert. During the journey in the Sinai Peninsula, rumors arose among Moses' people that it would have been better to remain under the yoke of the Egyptians. Moses then performed countless miracles to appease the hardship of the journey and to demonstrate to the Israelites that Yahweh was guiding them. Thus, to feed them Yahweh rained down manna from heaven, and to quench their thirst Moses struck a rock with his staff, assuring them that water would come forth. When it was slow to come forth and he struck a second time, Yahweh was angry at his lack of faith and punished him. Ultimately Moses went up to Mount Sinai, where he received the tablets of the law, imposed by God. These tablets contained the commandments, although in this scene it can be seen that they are empty. Fouls and losses.

Bracket; Spanish school of the eighteenth century. Carved wood, polychrome and gilded. It presents small faults due to the passage of time. In good state of preservation. Measurements: 55 x 60 x 50 cm. This type of corbels were common in the Spanish Baroque school from towards the last third of the XVII century and, although its design was already known in the Middle Ages as well as in the Renaissance, they were only common elements in the Baroque from the realization of the bronze Baldachin of the Basilica of San Pedro of the Vatican in Rome by Gian Lorenzo Bernini, between 1623 and 1634. From this moment on, and with numerous decorative variations, they became a characteristic element of architecture and other Baroque arts, appearing in painting, sculpture, etc. The most common was to decorate them with bunches of grapes and vine leaves, in clear allusion to the Body and Blood of Christ, key elements in the Salvation of Humanity, although, already more towards the 18th century, there will be other examples that add leaves and roses or flowers, responding, surely, to a greater relationship with elements of the Rococo or to an association with a feminine environment. The present motif gives a special character where a polychrome angel stands out among the gilding. It presents small faults due to the passage of time. In good state of preservation.

Estim. 500 - 600 EUR

Pendant-reliquary; Spanish School; XVII century. "Virgin with Child and Christ carrying the cross". Oil on copper. Presents faults in the glass. It has a silver metal frame. Measurements: 5 x 5 cm. This reliquary shows two religious scenes in one of them you can see the Virgin enthroned with the Child in her arms and on the other side the image of Jesus Christ on Calvary carrying the cross. This type of reliquaries were very common since the Gothic period, used to contain relics of the saints. It should be remembered, however, that at that time practically any element that had been in contact with the saint or his mortal remains (cloths, burial soil, etc.) was considered a sacred relic. The best examples were made of precious metals. It presents faults in the glass. It has a silver metal frame.
