Old Ecclesiastical Religious Art Sacred Heart of Jesus Plaster Statue Sculpture
Located in Topeka, KS
Glorious Late 19th to Early 20th Century Ecclesiastical Religious Art Sacred Heart of Jesus plaster statue sculpture upon a gilded wood base. Beautiful condition, keeping in mind that this is vintage and not new so will have signs of use and wear even if it has been refinished or restored. Specifically, his hands only had the wire structure so new hand-molded & crafted hands were created by our professional craftsmen and the wood on the base was bad so it has been given a new gilded wood base. He has many chips in the plaster that have been repaired and the whole statue has been shellacked. Please see photos, zoom in for details, and see long description as they are part of the condition report. We attempt to portray any imperfections. Circa, Late 19th – Early 20th Century.
Heaven knows we could all use a little more Jesus in our lives!! Well, your prayers have just been answered!!! This is an absolutely magnificent Ecclesiastical Religious Art plaster statue of The Sacred Heart of Jesus. He is comprised of hand sculpted and hand painted plaster and he stands about 43 inches tall upon a square flat edge gilded wood base. He has handsome, realistic, intricately hand painted facial features, and his glorious dark brown shoulder length hair drapes gracefully upon his shoulders. He wears a lovely, flowing robe featuring the Sacred Heart symbol upon his chest and his beautiful bare feet are exposed at the base of his robe. His enticing hands are open and reaching out as if to welcome you into his arms. The Most Sacred Heart of Jesus is one of the most widely practiced Catholic Faith devotions wherein the heart of Jesus Christ is viewed as a symbol of “God’s boundless and passionate love for mankind.” The Sacred Heart is depicted as a flaming heart shining from behind with divine light, pierced by the lance with a bleeding wound, and encircled by the crown of thorns. And Christian faith depicts it more as a flaming heart, while the wounds and crown of thorns allude to the manner of Christ’s passion and the flames a furnace of ardent love. You can depict it how you choose! We believe that his original home was most likely a wonderful old church where he was admired for many years. Due to his materials, he should only be exhibited indoors…. Which is exactly where we all need the Lord to be anyway… on the inside!!! He will be absolutely divine in your entry way or heavenly in a sunroom surrounded by indoor foliage or faux plants & trees. He has an all-over “perfectly imperfect” aged patina, a few “character enhancing” chips that you would expect given his vintage age, and an angelic aura...

Neo Classical Plaster Italian Sculpture of a Hand
Located in Catania, Sicilia
This is a Neoclassical Revival Italian plaster sculpture depicting a realistically rendered hand, signed and dated Rome, 25 Agosto 1857. The piece is a fine example of mid-19th century academic craftsmanship, capturing the elegance and anatomical precision characteristic of the Neoclassical style, which was heavily influenced by ancient Roman and Greek art.
The hand is sculpted with incredible attention to detail from the gentle curvature of the fingers to the subtle articulation of the knuckles and fingernails. The plaster surface has a softly textured, matte finish, evoking the look of marble and lending the piece a timeless, classical feel.
This sculpture was intended as a study model or academic cast, often used in art schools or ateliers of the time to teach drawing and sculpting from classical forms. The handwritten inscription of the date and location adds a personal and historical touch, anchoring it to a specific moment in 19th-century Rome —a hub of Neoclassical art and study during that period.
It’s both a decorative object and a historical artifact, perfect for collectors of classical art, academic studies, or antique plaster casts.
