Description

Explore the history of religious sculpture with Throne of Wisdom: 5364 from the Princeton Legacy Library. This work examines the wooden statue of the Mother and Child enthroned, a genre known as sedes sapientiae or the Seat of Wisdom. These figures reached a peak of development during the twelfth century, serving as a visible expression of the mystery of Incarnation. This book traces how Romanesque sculptors translated early church iconography into fully plastic, freestanding forms. The text explains how the style of these wood-carved figures conveys the medieval vision of humanity and divinity interfused. Readers will gain insight into the recent cleaning and restoration of these Madonna in Majesty figures, providing a detailed look at the preservation of these significant religious artworks.
