Description
Europe, France, ca. 1820 CE. An antique, finely carved wooden crucified Christ figure, with separately carved arms fitted to the torso with wooden pegs, and a form that demonstrates the artist's appreciation of anatomy and dramatic interpretation that captures the spiritual presence. Note the elongated torso, the finely delineated crown of thorns, the delineation of the stigmata, and the flowing quality of the loin cloth and wavy hair. Clearly this sculptor possessed great skill. A special example with a marvelous rich patina. Size: 12" H (30.5 cm)
