Antique Gothic Hand-Carved Crucifix w. Polychrome Corpus, European Church Relic
About the Item
Gothic Revival hand-carved crucifix with original polychrome, 19th Century European ecclesiastical ART.
An exquisite and spiritually moving 19th-century fine hand-carved oakwood crucifix featuring the Corpus of Christ in original polychrome. This antique devotional piece exemplifies the masterful craftsmanship and sacred artistry that once adorned European church altars.
The sculpted figure of Christ is delicately rendered, capturing both the suffering and serenity of the crucifixion. Despite minor loss to some of the fingers .. a testament to its age and liturgical history .. the figure retains an expressive realism enhanced by the beautifully aged patina and traces of original gilding. This natural wear adds to its Medieval character and authentic ecclesiastical charm.
The cross itself, made of solid oak, features finely carved Gothic details and quatrefoil finials, further enriched by hand-painted polychrome accents in deep blue and soft gold. The architectural base is striking, with its ornate pinnacles, arched panels, and bold structure reflecting a classic Gothic Revival aesthetic. It elevates the crucifix to a perfect viewing height, ideal for display on a side altar, pedestal, or devotional niche.
This sacred and historic object emanates reverence, making it a deeply meaningful addition to any curated collection of devotional art, sacred interiors, or antique ecclesiastical furnishings. A rare find for those seeking both aesthetic beauty and spiritual depth.

The rare wooden cross comes with superbly hand carved 'fleur de lis' symbols on all ends which makes us believe that this ecclesiastical antique in the Renaissance Style originates from France.

Unique and Large Crucifix with a Rare Size Hand Crafted Ceramic Corpus of Christ
Located in Lisse, NL
Unique and artistic crucifix from the European Midcentury Modern era.
Over the centuries the life and teachings of Christ have inspired many an artist to create His image in just as many ways as there were artist. In more recent decades the way in which Christ on the cross has been portrayed has changed significantly from how He was portrayed in previous centuries. Just like Christ was portrayed very differently in the early 20th century as opposed to how He was seen and portrayed in, for example, the Baroque era. And this way will keep changing as evolve. Just like with the other Styles, this modernist version of Christ either speaks to you or it does not and the way in which different people will see and experience this Christ will be very different too. That ofcourse also is the job of every artist, to make you think about an artwork and make you feel something at the same time. Not only is this unique modernist sculpture different in design from most Christ sculptures you will have ever seen, it also is all hand-crafted in a very rare material. This ceramic work of religious art also comes with a mild glazing and the unique elongated design makes it even more modern and 'experimental'. Thanks to the perfect metal hook on the back, safely mounting this piece is much easier than one would expect. If you already have a place and space in mind for Him then maybe you should be this sculpture's next custodian.

Extra Large Crucifix with Hand Carved Oak Corpus of Christ for Church or Chapel
Located in Lisse, NL
Beautifully carved and large size corpus of Jesus, made in the Arts & Crafts era.
This meaningful and unique crucifix from the early 1900s comes with a larger than life, hand carved oak Corpus of Christ. The details in the anatomy of this Christ are very well carved and they clearly reveal the suffering and dehydration that His body endured in the final days of his life. The artist/sculptor is clearly showing us the image of Jesus when or right after he bowed his head and died. The solid oak cross is original to this corpus and it was given a different color so that the unique and impressive corpus stands out perfectly. Have you also noticed the perfectly carved and thick crown of thorns on the head of Christ. The patina of this excellent condition and large corpus is another great feature that will never fail to impress. The former owners gave us the photo that you see in image 3 in this listing and in it you can see where this antique corpus...
