Lot information
This baroque wooden statue represents God the Father and dates from the 18th century. The statue is a typical example of Baroque sacral art, which emphasizes drama, movement and emotional expression of the characters. The figure of God the Father is depicted with a majestic aura, holding a golden cross on a globe, symbolizing his rule over the world and his divine power. Baroque sculptures often emphasize dynamism and movement, which we can see in the gesture of God the Father - with one hand pointing upwards, which refers to the connection with heaven, while with the other hand he firmly holds the world. The dramatic fold of the robe and the details of the face underline the emotional charge of the entire composition.
