This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of a head sculpture, believed to represent an apostle, created between 1325 and 1350 in Southwestern France, possibly Toulouse. Carved from limestone and adorned with hints of polychromy, this piece is a testament to the artistic talent that flourished during the 14th century. Measuring at an impressive overall size of 36.2 x 24.2 x 20.4 cm (14 1/4 x 9 1/2 x 8 1/16 in. ), this head sculpture captivates viewers with its intricate details and serene expression. The artist's skillful use of stone brings forth a sense of lifelikeness, as if frozen in time.
