Italian Baroque Painted and Gilt Wood Winged Angel Playing a Violin

19th Italian Baroque style carved, painted and gilt wood winged angel playing a violin. This utterly charming piece is wonderfully carved by a true artist and artisan. Just look at the rendering of the drapery of the angels robes. Painted in a beautiful red and cream with gilded wings, hair and violin, this is an exquisite piece of carved sculpture that will give you joy every time you look at it. Every home should have an angel !     Circa 1880.

15" h  x  10.5" w  x  3.5" d

One photo shows the angel inside a 17th century Italian walnut frame. The frame is not included but can be purchased on this site.

Condition: Some surface loss to the paint and gilding expected with a piece this age. Please see photos.
