Baroque Pulpit Cherub

768
This expressive winged cherub (late 17th c.) decorates the pulpit’s base with delicate carving and dynamic movement. The combination of floral garlands and angelic figures reflects the Baroque desire to merge nature and the divine, enveloping the preaching space in an atmosphere of celestial beauty.
