Product description
Expressive carved wooden sculpture depicting a seated child, executed with a sober yet deeply emotional presence. The figure is rendered in a compact, introspective pose, a theme strongly associated with the work of Belgian sculptor Joris Minne (1897–1981), known for his sensitive portrayals of youth, vulnerability, and human emotion. The sculpture shows fine hand-carved details, including the stylised facial features, subtle hair carving, and rounded volumes of the body. The warm patina and visible tool marks enhance its authenticity and sculptural character. A carved monogram is present on the back, further supporting the artistic attribution. A striking decorative object with strong sculptural appeal, ideal for collectors of Belgian art, mid-century sculpture, or timeless interior accents.
