Large Size French Wall Crucifix / Jesus Christ on the Cross with Crown of Thorns

About the Item

Antique large size sculpture and an impressive, religious work of art. Looking at Christ suffering like this, the crucifix (in our view) is a symbol of what 'telling people the truth' can lead to. 'The truth does not have many friends' is something I once read. Looking at what is going on in the world today, in most countries that still is the case. However, we feel that the human kind, nevertheless, is becoming more loving, civilized, empathetic and self-conscious. Mind you, this sizable wall crucifix dates from the late 19th century and the cruelties that people did to one another for acting or being different than 'normal' in those days and in most cases were far worse than what we see in this day and age. Looking at Christ on the cross with this in mind, we have come along way and we are slowly, but surely evolving in the right direction. Christ on the cross should therefor also be a reminder of someone who has foreseen all this and who should therefor always be a beacon of hope and light when things are not going our way, yet. We hope that this handcrafted and large crucifix with Crown of Thorns can also inspire the new owner to be the best he or she can be. Even if it means he or she will have to take a few steps back in order to move forward on the long run. Because of its size, this antique will also look impressive high on the wall of a public building, but also on one of the walls of a split level home. Mind you, our price for this antique includes perfect packing and worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days. Maximum height x width x depth: 54.5 x 34.5 x 7.5 inches. Corpus height from head to toe: 32.5 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for artistic and meaningful and for craftsmanship of years gone by.

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...

Stunning & Powerful Altar Crucifix with Detailed Bronze Sculpture of Christ 1912

Located in Lisse, NL

Unique table crucifix and a wonderful work of religious art, dated 1912 and numbered. For us the most powerful statement will always be 'the truth will set you free'. It is what we have learned most from the life of Christ and of His teachings and it is the one thing we always think about whenever we look at a crucifix. Anyone who has tried to break down his/her ego and found a clearer consciousness in the process knows how healing and rewarding that journey can be. After that you can only be grateful for all the good things that are bound to come your way. Good things will come your way, because the universe needs people like you. Whomever created this amazing work of religious art too must have been inspired and motivated by the life of Christ, because how ever could anyone create a piece that is of such quality, so beautiful and so powerful at the same time. Both the beautifully designed bronze cross with the King of the Jews inscription and the amazingly detailed bronze corpus of Christ are of a quality that you will only rarely find on the open market. They are perfectly mounted on a stunning marble base and together they create one of the most impressive table or altar crucifixes...

Crucifix on Calvary, Called Plague of Christ, France, Early 18th Century

Located in Milan, IT

Crucifix on Calvary, called 'Pestis Christi' or Crucifiix Pestis 'Plague of Christ' or Plague Crucifix). The sculpture is composite, made with heterogeneous materials: wax, wood, papier-mâché. The octagonal base is slightly raised and supports the calvary, symbolized by rocks, from which the crucifix rises, made with intentionally unfinished boards and with marked veins. The depicted Christ is peculiar: he shows scarified skin all over his body. Masterfully crafted in wax. They are the plagues of the plague that Christ, 'Agnus Dei' takes charge of with salvific value, for the salvation of the world. At his feet the ordeal full of symbols: evil (snake) with the apple, the 'Memento mori' of human bones...
