Late 18th Century life size hand carved Christ figure

About the Item

Late 18th Century life size hand carved Christ figure A life size hand carved 18th Century figure of Christ, we assume of Spanish origin with exceptional hand painted detail. The woven crown of thorns is carved into the head with metal iron spikes. The reverse shows a few support joints that would have allowed this religious artifact to be attached to a wall of sorts. This item is life size carved from what we assume if elm wood and therefore weighs close to 50kg. Dimensions in inches: H 65” x W 17” x D 12” Age: Late 18th Century Origin: Spain Condition: Aged Aged wear and tear across all the surfaces due to obvious use over the years. Missing both arms and feet, with a natural aged crack to the rear as shown but this does NOT affect the form in anyway. Worm holes are aged and have also been re-treated just in case. This is a very old item and we have tried to show all the condition as best as possible, please expect imperfections as shown. A courier would be needed to ship this item due to its share size and weight of over 50KG. We strongly suggest reviewing all the photos provided as part of this advert and propose questions where sections are unclear to avoid disappointment upon purchase. A direct message usually takes 24 hours to answer. For multiple years we have sold antique items globally, please expect our items to show relevant age and natural wear, Items only restored due to breaks and major loss, and we always stipulate this in our condition report.
