15th Century Monk in Marble High Medieval Period

  

Interesting marble depicting a monk singing. The silhouette is reminiscent of the mourners from funerary art, with a style that appears rustic yet expressive, and controlled details, Northern Italy, 15th century. It is missing its legs, and a plaster restoration on 2 cm of this lower part allows it to be displayed in perfect balance. Height 27 cm, 15 cm at its widest.
