A charming 18th century Baroque work, with finely carved, gilded and polychromed arabesque uprights. The background, obscured by time, depicts a scene where a martyr Saint, most likely Saint John of Nepomuk, is thrown from the Charles Bridge in Prague in 1393.
Our niche receives a statuette, sculpted in the round, in gilded wood. Saint Anne seated, teaches her daughter the young Mary. It is placed on a wooden terrace painted with marble decorations
Condition of use, the reglued canopy is topped with a fire pot. It remains fragile and would deserve to be consolidated. Some lack of gilding.
Dimensions of 70 cm high by 31 wide and 18 cm deep
