19th Century Life-Size Corpus Christi Figure Leg
About the Item
19th century life-size corpus Christi figure leg
We are proud to offer a very unusual religious artifact, dating from early to mid-19th century and either Spanish or Italian in origin. This hand carved, section formed leg would have originally been attached to a large figure of Christ. Likely from a procession figure in kneeling position. This form still has all its origin sections, dowl jointed fittings and original paint. Wonderfully detailed and an exceptional carving just as a sculptural form we believe. From an interior point of view, it could be hung from a ceiling, used as a piece of wall art coming out of a wall, or can stand in the corner of a room. Macabre in visual appeal and just a very unusual important 19th century item. The whole figure would have been quite spectacular as you can image.

This remarkable and good size sculpture of Christ (who has just bowed His head) on the cross is different to almost all others.
