Item description

Main features : Materials and technique: The sculpture is carved from wood, prepared and painted in polychrome. The cross is painted black and its upper part features a wooden scroll with the inscription “INR.I.”. The base is carved and covered in wood, decorated with gilding. Style and iconography: Christ is depicted in the style of Christus Patiens (Suffering Christ), with his head bowed, his eyes closed or half-closed, and a knotted loincloth (cloth) covering his hips and legs. This iconography developed widely from the 13th century onwards, emphasising the humanity and suffering of Jesus. Anatomical details: The attention to anatomical details, such as visible ribs and musculature, suggests a thorough study of the suffering human body, common in Baroque and late Renaissance schools of sculpture. Condition: The sculpture shows signs of wear and tear, visible through the loss of paint (polychromy) and some minor damage, such as the absence of a finger on the right hand, typical of well-preserved but worn early works. Works of this type are often unique pieces made by master craftsmen or local schools, making precise attribution difficult without specialist knowledge.
