About the Item
Crucified Christ, Sorrowful Crucifix. Carved and polychrome wood. Possibly southern German school, 15th century.
Polychrome and gilded wood carving showing Christ with the Crown of Thorns, on the Cross, already deceased (eyes closed), with the usual INRI phylactery on the upper crossbar of the Latin cross, three nails (note the crossed feet) and a short, golden and polychrome purity cloth or perizonium. It is known, in German, as “Gabelkreuz” or “Gabelkruzifix” (“Sorrowful Crucifix” in Spanish) to a type of Gothic Crucified Christ that is especially expressive (prioritizing external suffering over other aspects) and that, normally, presents the cross in a of Y or ypsilon (alluding to the Tree of Life), created, apparently, thanks to the influence of the mysticism of the late 13th and early 14th centuries (Saint Brigid, etc.) and which can be found in the Rhineland (west of Germany) and, through influences and contacts, in the rest of Europe (apparently, there are those who currently consider that the origin of the iconography is not German but Italian). Most of the sculptures of this variant are concentrated in three European areas: the German zone that covers the current federal states of northern Rhineland-Westphalia, Rheiland-Pfalz, Lower Saxony and central and northern Italy, although they are also found in other enclaves such as Lucera in Apulia, Palermo in Sicily and Oristiano in Sardinia. We must not forget the Spanish examples either (usually included in three categories: those derived from the Holy Christ of Perpignan, the Castilian group, the Navarrese images and the Andalusian Crucifieds). One of the oldest pieces that follow this typology is the Sorrowful Crucifix from the Church of Saint Mary of the Capitol in Cologne. In Italy, the one in the Church of Santa María Novella in Florence usually stands out. In Spain there is one in Puente la Reina (Navarra) that is considered a donation from a German pilgrim from the 14th century; There is one in the lower choir of the monastery of Santa María de las Huelgas Reales in Burgos attributed to a Central European workshop or to some sculptor influenced by these models in the second half of the 14th century (with a Latin cross). It is also necessary to take into account the German sculptors who traveled and worked in Europe. ·
