À propos de la sculpture
This figure was produced as an aid to prayer and meditation, and this kind of realistic devotional image was very popular in the fifteenth century. The stigmata have small holes, some have pipes also inserted however others have been plugged. Liquid may once have been pumped through to give an appearance of blood, however it could also have been that thin wire was used to indicate the blood.
