The Virgin and Child
Sobre a escultura
This figure of the standing Virgin and Child is said to have come from Ecouen. It was considerably restored, probably just before its acquisition in 1911. The restorations are certainly the work of Henri Boutron, a master sculpture restorer employed by the dealer S.J. Demotte in Paris at the beginning of the 20th century.
The style is similar to that of the reliefs executed under Pierre de Chelles about 1296-1316 on the north side of the apse of Notre Dame in Paris.
