    Magnificent bronze chryselephantine, green and gold patina, on a green onyx marble base from Pakistan, with white and brown veins, the face and hands are in ivory and it represents the Virgin of Calvary called "the Prayerful" 15th century, Nuremberg in Bavaria.

    The Virgin is standing with her face and hands joined and twisted in a gesture of pain. 
    Dressed in a long robe, her rounded belly is visible, she wears a wimple covering her chin, and her veil is draped over a Germanic hairstyle in fashion at the time.

    The chryselephantine technique is the simultaneous use of ivory, gold and precious metals in an art object. 
    Gold was normally used for the drapery of the statue, while ivory was used for the flesh.
