A tall hand painted chalkware statue of The Sacred Heart of Jesus, with the inscription, "Voilà ce Coeur qui a tant aimé les hommes" (Behold this Heart which has so loved men) 
 
It is a beautiful statue, dating from the early 20th century with the expected minor signs of damage at the front; including small losses, paint imperfections (it is the original paint). However there is a small hole in the back of the head, probably caused by a bubble in the plaster on manufacture, it is not easily visible displayed forward facing.
 
The statue stands 13" (33cm) tall.
