Fascinating articulated wooden figure, crafted in Italy in the 20th century and likely connected to devotional or theatrical tradition. The body, intentionally essential and jointed, is designed to be dressed: the movable joints of the arms and hips allow the figure to assume different poses and scenic interpretations. The arms have full mobility, although movement is partially limited by the garment, which is very delicate and closely fitted to the structure.
The finely carved head is enriched with glass eyes, a detail that gives the figure remarkable expressiveness and intensity, enhancing its character and visual impact.
The figure is dressed in an original period-fabric garment, which is naturally extremely fragile and has been restored in several areas to preserve its structure and appearance without compromising authenticity. The garment is removable and enhances the scenic presence of the statuette.
There are traces of woodworm and signs of wear consistent with age, elements that contribute to the genuine charm and historical authenticity of the piece. Perfect for collectors of folk art, devotional objects, curiosities, or for interiors styled as a cabinet of curiosities.
Note: Measurements are approximate and may vary slightly depending on the point of reference.
