Bas-relief sculpture of Saint Roch and his dog - 20th Century Folk Art

Bring a touch of authenticity and character to your interior with this superb solid wood sculpture from French folk art. This direct-carved bas-relief represents Saint Roch, an emblematic figure of the pilgrim, accompanied by his faithful dog and displaying a red pattée cross. The piece stands out for its naive and rustic style, typical of handcrafted productions from the mountains or countryside of the mid-20th century. The polychrome details (eyes, beard, cross) have retained a beautiful freshness and highlight the sculptor's manual work. Its pointed shape and warm patina make it an ideal wall piece for a "cabinet of curiosities" decor, a country house, or a chalet. Material: Solid wood (oak or walnut) Style: Folk Art / Raw. Condition: Beautiful vintage condition, original patina. A fixing hole is present at the back for immediate installation. Dimensions: H43 cm × W14 cm × D3 cm.
