Devotional Statuette of the Virgin and Child

French

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 304

As in the contemporary ivory statuettes displayed nearby, the tender exchange of gestures and glances indicates a remarkable intimacy in this group. The statuette was probably originally set into a protective tabernacle.
