This is a wonderful antique porcelain statue depicting the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The statue is beautifully painted in matte colours of blue, pink, yellow, flesh tone and brown with a red heart and gold accenting. I think that the figure is made of bisque porcelain that is affixed to a glazed porcelain base. The only marking is the number 52 on the interior base, but I think that this is of French origin, but possibly German. The piece measures 10 3/4 in height and 4 at its widest. It is in very good condition with no chips or wear - there is a firing fissure along the mold line on one side (see last close-up photo), but this is original to the making of the piece. Also, I do see what looks like a chip repair on the interior base but this isnt visible under normal viewing. This is a wonderful antique statue of Jesus - excellent modelling and detailing!
