Statuette

Saint Joseph in polychrome and gilt porcelain – Old Paris, Napoleon III period, circa 1860 Antique statuette depicting Saint Joseph standing and holding a branch of lilies, a traditional symbol of purity. White glazed porcelain with polychrome decoration and abundant hand-applied gilding. The saint, with wavy hair and a brown beard, wears a long tunic adorned with floral motifs and gilded scrollwork. The generous folds of the mantle, the expressive modeling of the face, and the delicate touches of color attest to the care lavished on this devotional figure. The figure stands on a tall, molded circular pedestal, accented with broad gilded bands and raised ornamental motifs. French work in the tradition of so-called “Old Paris” porcelain, mid-19th century, circa 1850–1870. Height: 28 cm. Condition: attractive overall appearance, gilding well preserved. Small old losses to the lily-branch element; minor signs of use and wear to the base.
