Photo of Virgin and Child - Public domain dedication

Summary

From c. 1650 Rombout Verhulst worked in the Netherlands, where he developed into the leading sculptor of monumental marbles – funerary monuments, garden figures and portraits. But he also demonstrated his skill in small-scale ivory carvings, such as this. The chubby Christ Child, the thick, wavy locks of hair and the heavy drapery seem almost tangibly realistic.
