About the Item

Italian sculptor (16th century) - Saint Maurus. 54 x 30 x h 110 cm. Full-length figure in carved, lacquered, and painted wood. Saint Maurus is depicted standing in full figure, identified by the inscription "MAVRV.." on the base. He is shown in monastic dress, wrapped in a wide mantle with deep, richly carved folds, in a frontal and composed pose. The treatment of the drapery reveals a confident command of woodcarving technique, rooted in the Late Gothic tradition while reflecting Renaissance influence in the facial structure and overall stance. The work was most likely made for devotional purposes, as part of a church or private chapel's liturgical furnishings. Condition report: Partial loss of the polychrome surface and gilding. Structure in good overall condition, with signs of age, wear, and some lacunae. - This item is sold with a certificate of authenticity with legal validity. - Further details on the condition report are available upon request. *Please keep in mind that this work has not yet obtained the certificate of free export from Italy from the Superintendence of Cultural Heritage.
