Abstract

Study of a carving in polychrome wood and small format of Saint Joseph, belonging to a particular sevillian collection, that after the pertinent examination of its technical, stylistic and iconographic characteristics, we propose its attribution to Francisco Antonio Gijón (1653-c. 1705), one of the big masters of the baroque andalusian sculpture.
