This is a wooden sculpture by Austrian sculptor Johann Georg Pinzel, active in the 18th century. The sculpture depicts the head of an angel, carved in a highly expressive style. The angel's face is contorted in a mix of pain and ecstasy, reflecting the emotional intensity typical of Pinzel's work, sometimes categorized as Baroque or Rococo. The detailed carving of the hair and the angel’s features contributes to the realism and dramatic effect of the sculpture, which might have been part of a larger religious ensemble.
