Description
An antique Italian style hand carved wooden figural bust sculpture. Polychrome decoration with gilt embellishments. A religious work depicting Saint Stephen, modeled in ornate high collared Papal mozzetta, cope, and chasuble vestment garments, and with a hairstyle suggesting a monastic background. Hand made linen priestly garment element to front, possibly a relic. The back of the figure has an opening to a hollow interior area which may have been used to house a relic or similar object. The form suggests the figure may have previously been the summit to a larger, complete saint or papal statue. No apparent signature
