Southeast Asia, Philippines, Spanish Colonial influence, ca. late 19th to mid-20th century CE. A hand-carved wooden sculpture of a female saint, likely Saint Philomena, wearing a flower crown and holding a bouquet to her chest with her left hand. Turning her head slightly left, the sacred female stands atop a rectangular plinth and wears a floor-length dress adorned with relief quatrefoils beneath a cloak that drapes her shoulder and attaches to her wrist. A thick, striated coiffure falls down her back, nicely framing her naturalistic visage.
