OLOT - Sculpture, ARCÁNGEL SAN RAFAEL Y TOBÍAS - 37 cm - Gilt brass - 1930
This 1930 sculpture by OLOT titled "Arcángel San Rafael y Tobías" is a gilt brass artwork representing religious figures from Christian iconography. St. Raphael the Archangel is often depicted as a protector and healer, and Tobias is a figure from the Book of Tobit whom Raphael guides. The use of gilt brass — brass covered with a thin layer of gold — lends the sculpture a luminous quality, suitable for devotional or decorative purposes. The 37 cm size suggests a substantial piece fit for display in religious or private collections. Such sculptures reflect the artistic and devotional expressions of early 20th century, combining traditional themes with metalwork craftsmanship.
