Important walnut altarpiece carved in high... - Lot 39 - Thierry de Maigret
Important walnut altarpiece carved in high relief, representing the "Incarnation of the Virgin". Mary, in prayer, a book on her knees, seems serene while the saints and prophets around her are in great confusion except for three characters who give the impression of seeing the Holy Spirit. The sculptor endeavoured to give different expressions to each one and paid particular attention to the rendering of the drapes. Spain, 16th century, surrounded by Gabriel Yolis or Joly (Noyon (?) - Teruel 1538) H: 80 - L: 60 cm Work to be brought closer: Altarpiece of the Adoration of the Shepherds; National Museum of Sculpture in Valladolid The Prophets of the Detroit Institute of Museum Arts
