Description
Altar figure from a Gothic retable. Saint Anne, depicted in an elongated form, carries her daughter Mary in her left arm, shown here with a book, and her grandson, the Christ Child with the globe, in her right arm. Once exhibited in the church room of the former Guben City Museum.
Provenance
Formerly the Guben City Museum. Parts of the collection were apparently evacuated to Kossar (today: Kosierz) in 1942/43. The part of the collection that remained in Guben is said to have been looted between 1945 and 1948 and has been considered lost ever since.
