Statue of the Virgin, Notre Dame de Paris

Auguste Mestral

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white photograph of a stone statue. The statue depicts a woman wearing a long dress and a crown on her head, holding a baby. The statue stands on a square wooden platform on the ground. The woman's right arm is bent at the elbow with her hand in front of her body, and her left arm supports the baby, which is on her left side. The statue appears to be a depiction of the Virgin Mary and the Christ child. The background contains a large stone carving with four visible figures and an ornate ledge. There are pieces of wood and other debris on the ground. A large fabric hangs on the right side.
