VIRGIN OF PITIE in carved and polychromed lime tree, hollow back.
The Virgin seated on a rock holds on her knees the stretched out body of her Son; still young face framed by the wimple and a veil overhanging it; Christ with closed eyes and a twisted crown on his head; draped deep and supple clothes.
Franconia, mid 15th century
Height: 61 cm
