Christ Child Christ child as Salvator Mundi, The naked child stands upright with his right leg slightly on a profiled pedestal. It blesses with his right hand, on the left it holds the globe. The face with a pointed, smiling mouth and slightly pinched eyes is framed by curls, which are laid flat on the forehead, but which stand by the ears and neck. Below the right foot the Mechelen city mark: the three beams, this also on the bottom of the pedestal. In the middle of the upper concave of the pedestal, the Mechelen quality mark for gilding: the letter M., anonymous, Mechelen, c. 1510, walnut
