19th Century Gilded Venetian Angel – Carved Wood with Gold Gilding

19th Century Gilded Venetian Angel – Carved Wood with Gold Gilding

This exquisite 19th century, Venetian, gilded angel is hand-carved from wood and finished in brilliant gold gesso, evoking the opulence and spiritual drama of Baroque and Rococo traditions. The figure is depicted with flowing hair, outstretched carved wings, and draped in acanthus leaf embellishments, a classic nod to ecclesiastical symbolism and Florentine flourish.

Likely once part of an altar or devotional installation, this Venetian angel sculpture showcases the skilled craftsmanship of 19th century Italy. At 24 inches tall and nearly 30 inches wide, its dramatic silhouette and radiant surface command attention, making it a striking sacred accent or a luxurious decorative focal point.
