Carved figure of St. Sebastian. Southern Germany / Austria, early 18th Century. Photo Hampel

Height: 79 cm.. Estimate € 12.000 - 14.000

Slender body moving in a gentle attitude tied to a tree, mitgeschnitzt the ropes. Right leg just completed, the left leg is taken back, head bowed. Revert to get even better with some age patina. Good, masterful Schnitzstil
