Cherub Head on Baroque Pulpit

709
This cherubic head with spread wings (17th–18th cc.) adorns the base of the Baroque pulpit. The winged putto symbolizes innocence, divine presence, and protection. Such decorative angels were common in Baroque sacred art, creating a sense of heavenly accompaniment within the liturgical space.
