Description

This description has been translated and may not be completely accurate. Click here to see the original

This is an earthenware Virgin in labor, probably from Nevers. It is a crowned Virgin standing on a terrace.
The Virgin in labor is a statuette frequently found in homes from the 18th to the 19th century. On the Virgin's head, there is a hollowed-out crown with a two-centimeter diameter hole at the bottom. Through this hole, holy water could be poured into the statuette, but more importantly, a candle could be placed to light when the woman's labor began.
Regarding the condition, note a missing part at the base, a crack along the length (probably a firing defect), and some wear to the enamel, a common feature of earthenware objects.
Our photos allow you to appreciate the quality of the object.
Please examine the photos carefully.
