Small antique domestic icon representing Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque, a major figure in French spirituality, closely linked to Paray-le-Monial and the spread of devotion to the Sacred Heart in the 19th century. The object consists of a solid wood support, cut in an arch, and a raised brass medal, accompanied by its original nameplate. Intimate format, designed for personal use: bedside table, small oratory, or object carried during travels. The patina of the wood and metal is old and uniform, without modern restoration. Signs of wear are visible, normal for an object of this nature and age. A simple, sincere icon, representative of 19th-century domestic piety, today sought after for its authenticity rather than its display. Careful shipping.
