18th Century Colonial School - San Antonio de Padua, Polychrome carved wood
Dimensions: 44 × 18 × 13 cm Polychrome carved wood. The figure of Saint Anthony of Padua, holding a book in one hand and a rosary in the other, embodies the simplicity and fervour of the traditional iconography of the saint. The sculpture, dating from the 18th century, shows a restrained devotion, where the details in the polychromy still retain part of their original splendour, highlighting the contrast between the austerity of his habit and the gilded details on the book. This type of work reflects the influence of the Baroque on colonial artistic expressions.
