Origin: Southern Italy.

A splendid, large-scale work, exquisitely sculpted in full-figure, in a rounded shape.

The figure stands erect in a solemn pose, and the vertical line maintains Renaissance canons.

The movement of the robes is extraordinary, with an incredible sequence of folds and drapes highlighted by luminous silver reflections.

The Virgin wears a crown on her head, holding in place the long, wavy hair that flows down her back.

The facial expression is truly extraordinary.

The glassy eyes are a characteristic of Southern Italian Baroque sculpture and contribute to the strikingly realistic look.

It is clearly a work of high quality. The Saint presents herself in all her sumptuous beauty, with splendid features and a very pleasing appearance. The sculpture stands out not only for its exceptional sculptural quality but also for its extremely elegant and captivating image, unusual for a religious subject.

It is in excellent condition.

A professional restoration has been carried out, restoring the work to perfect condition.

The large statue is entirely carved in the round so that it can be admired from all sides when carried in procession on her feast day.
