About the sculpture
This statuette is made by an unknown artist in the first half of the 16th century in Siegburg, Germany and represents the Virgin standing with the Child Christ on her right arm.
The figure is made of pipeclay, which is a fine white clay also used to make tobacco pipes and pottery. Conveniently situated on a major trading route, Siegburg was a centre of ceramic production with well-organised workshops and kilns in which pipe-clay figures were also fired.
