Antique French depiciton of the Holy Family signed by M. Lacour (signed at the top on the left).
The small sculpture is made of calcareous stone or plaster.
Oval black painted wood frame with domed glass.
White glass decorative balls all around (one of them has a crack).
A previous owner glued (not very well) a 'Paroissien' (parishioner) metal sign at the top. That sort of signs are for prayer books.
Shell Holy Water font attached at the bottom.
The shell moves around its nail.
Marks, scratches and imperfections on the frame, the shell and the glass.
Paper backing is damaged so dust is visible under the glass.
Screws have been added at the back and are sticking out.
The original loop at the back is gone and was replaced by a nail and string.
Size with shell stoup: 34 x 16 cm / 13.38 x 6.29 inches
Glass part approx: 10.1 x 7.6 cm / 3.93 x 2.75 inches
The pictures are part of the description.
Thanks for visiting Cabinet de Merveilles!
