Sculpture of Saint Erasmus (Saint Elmo), French School, 17th century

Descriptio Carved stone with traces of original polychromy. Dimensions: 80 × 30 × 16 cm. 17th-century religious sculpture depicting Saint Erasmus of Antioch, also known as Saint Elmo, martyr and patron saint of sailors. The figure, elegantly restrained yet powerfully present, retains vestiges of its original polychromy, which enhance the serene features and the vertical composition characteristic of French Baroque art. A work of remarkable sculptural quality and great historical and devotional value. Provenance: private collection. Lot in international warehouse (within the EU). Intra-EU shipping: no import duties apply within the EU. An export permit from the country of origin may be required.
