A WHITE-GLAZED TERRACOTTA FRAGMENTARY HEAD OF THE VIRGIN

The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

As mentioned, a fragment and therefore broken at the neck. Possibly not originally glazed on the top of the head or the glaze has discolored. Large chipped losses to the edge of her veil above her forehead. Additional flaked losses to her veil overall, to her halo, and overall. Chipped repair under her chip at center edge. Discolorations and possibly in-painted repairs to her face. Particularly to her nose, forehead, and cheeks. No TL test was performed on the present terracotta.
