Mexican or South American, late 18th or early 19th C. These figures were typically carved, then covered with gesso before painting, a process which originated in Italy and Spain and influenced artisans in their Colonial settlements. This figure is unusually well carved and is fitted with glass eyes which give the figure a more realistic appearance. Price: $2,500 |
