Walnut sculpture – Saint Joseph and the Christ Child – 18ᵗʰ century – South-West France

The quality of the realization of this monoxyle work reveals the talent of the sculptor who represents Saint Joseph and the Infant Jesus from a trunk in walnut.
The polychromy of origin can still be seen in places, the patina of times in three centuries has erased the rest.
