430 - M.FESCA (XX)

M.FESCA (XX) Lamentation of Christ Carved wood, signed on the underside, early 20th c. 15.5 x 42.5 x 6 cm This high-quality carving demonstrates a familiarity with the works of Ernst Barlach (1870–1938). It may be a work by Margarete Fesca (née Philippi), the mother of the ceramicist Ursula Fesca (1900–1975); she is known to have been active as an artist.
