Antique, Early 1900 Large Hand Carved Alabaster Sculpture / Bust of Jesus Christ
About the Item
Unique and antique alabaster sculpture of our Lord Jesus.
This gorgeous and large size work of religious art from a church or monastery is ideal for display at home as well. Especially the positive and determined face is beautiful to look at and since the crown of thorns is at the base of this sculpture (and not on His head) we believe this striking bust shows Jesus after His resurrection. Anyone who has ever attempted to create anything out of a hard mineral stone understands that this rare bust can only be the work of a skilled and seasoned artisan. To have found this early 1900 sculpture in such remarkable condition was like the cherry on the proverbial pie. The organically carved and large base, to us, is the perfect one for this worldfamous and ancient happening in the history of mankind and it also ensures that this sculpture stands very strong and stabile. No matter where you decide to have it on display its hopeful, serene and spiritual look and feel will never go unnoticed.

- Large Antique Hand Carved Sandstone Sculpture, Bust of Christ with Display StandLocated in Lisse, NLTop quality and mint condition bust sculpture from the early 1900s with maker's name. This incredibly well carved bust of Jesus is impressive both for its quality and its large size. With His head bowed down like in His final hours on the cross this design is obviously perfect for displaying on a tall stand. In this case a tall and ebonized wooden pedestal was used and thanks to the contrasting colors of this bust and its pedestal they are like a match made in heaven. The master sculptor / artist could not have done a better job in hand carving the exhausted yet serene facial expression of Christ. The large size of this bust combined with the rare sandstone material makes this work of religious art look extra ancient. Because of its size this archetype of Christianity can also be seen and worshipped from further away. Unfortunately we cannot read the name of the skilled artisan who signed this unique sculpture. Thanks to its amazing quality, its excellent condition, its deeper meaning and its powerful presence this work of religious art will never fail to impress, no matter where you decide to have it on display. For it to have come our way felt like a blessing and to be able to offer it to the 1stdibs community in this amazing condition is an honour for us. Our fair price for this museum worthy sculpture again includes perfect packing and also worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days.
