About the Item

Antique painting depicting the Face of Christ as Salvator Mundi Flemish painter, 16th-17th century Oil on copper 22 x 18 cm./ framed 42 x 39 cm. An intense image of the face of Christ as 'Salvator Mundi', immortalised in a frontal pose, with a fixed gaze directed at the observer, the work of a Flemish master active in the 16th or 17th century. The expression is solemn and conveys an evident protective, reassuring message, accentuated by the sense of hieraticity of the face, sublimated by the author through the use of a forcibly static pose and a frontal pose that follows an almost geometric rigour. It is the most iconic Christian depiction, popularised by the great Northern European masters of the 15th to 16th century, such as Gerard David. Private prayer was encouraged and small works such as these were easily transportable and suitable for domestic use, responding to a spiritual trend that emphasised meditation and reflection on humanity and the passion of Christ. Although with human features, the transcendental nature, inherited from the Oriental icon tradition, is evident, the hypnotic and mysterious gaze enhanced by the powerful beam of light that strikes the features frontally. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The painting is sold complete with an attractive gilded frame and comes with a certificate of authenticity and descriptive iconographic card.
