Italian gothic sculpture Altounian collection. Marble relief fragment.
Small marble head representing a bearded man in profile, an apostle or a prophet. This sculpture comes from the Joseph Altounian collection dispersed during the Artcurial sale of September 18, 2019. It bears on the reverse the typical label of the Joseph Altounian collections Ref: Annexe 622. Our sculpture has been cited as coming from the close circle of Giovanni Pisano. Without being able to affirm this attribution with certainty, our marble nevertheless belongs to the Tuscan school of the beginning of the 14th century, under the influence of sculptors such as Pisano or Giovanni di Balduccio. The comparison with the latter is interesting, Giovanni di Balducio produced capitals and funerary reliefs with representations very close to our marble.
Saint Sebastian Lombard school. Renaissance alabaster.

Large polychrome wooden statue representing a holy bishop carrying a crosier and making the sign of blessing.

The plasticity of the face, the folds of the dress, the rigidity of the forms lead us to place this work at the beginning of the Gothic period, in the 13th century, with Romanesque influences still present in the expressions and the posture. Our sculpture shows traces of polychromy and gilding.
Sedes Sapientiae. Mosan Virgin with Child.
Large Virgin and Child in oak from the end of the 13th century or beginning of the 14th century.

Gothic sculpture sees a profusion and diversification of media. Still austere for the first Gothic art, statuary knows an explosion of Marian worship with series of virgins and children. Architectural works remain with capitals, corbels and columns. The Ekinium gallery offers a series of religious and secular works from the gothique period.
