Putto in legno di tiglio scolpito a rilievo e policromato, che emerge da una nuvola e tiene tra le mani un serpente. Germania meridionale o Italia settentrionale, XVII secolo Altezza: 35 cm (Segni di tarlo, ritocchi alla policromia) Questo elemento apparteneva verosimilmente a un’allegoria della Prudenza: l’iconografia deriva dal versetto di Matteo 10, 16 («Siate prudenti come i serpenti»), che ispirò in particolare l’affresco di Carlo Maratti realizzato intorno al 1656 per la cappella battesimale della chiesa di San Marco a Roma.
