Virgin in Majesty From Romanesque art to Gothic

Important Virgin and Child in majesty. Mary holds Christ on her left knee. Hieratic face of the Virgin, still very much borrowed from Romanesque canons, framed by a short headdress. Our sculpture is distinguished by its important museum dimension and the confrontation of the two characters, the hieratic Virgin and the child, already belonging to the first Gothic of Ile de France. The very beautiful face of the child, the short headdress of the Virgin, her mantle with remains of red polychrome, pulled under the arm are all characteristics of this period of transition between Romanesque art and early Gothic art.
Second half of the 13th century
