About the Item

Large and exceptional work of religious art. If you are a collector of truly exceptional church artefacts then this early 20th century altar piece could be perfect for you. With church related antiques as one of our specialties we know that you will rarely find a better quality altar crucifix from this era. Both the corpus of Christ and the sculptures of Mary and Saint John mourning on either side are of a quality and beauty that is unsurpassed and you just don't find this kind of beauty and quality on the open market. The flowing, Art Nouveau style of the posture of Mary and John too tell us that this piece was created around 1900-1910. The small bronze maker's plaque at the bottom right tells us that this unique church relic was made by A.H. Haan of Antwerp, but unfortunately we don't know the name of the artist who designed the amazing bronze sculptures. The plaque also reads 'ornements d'eglise' which means church ornaments and it is clear they were specialists and top quality makers. This unique and handcrafted crucifix of considerable size and weight is in excellent condition and its quality and condition makes it suitable for the most beautiful of churches and monasteries. The details of the draped clothes, the depth in the bronze, the beautiful body and face of Christ and the amazing patina against the brass and oak background are some of the stunning elements that make this crucifix very impressive. Together they give even more weight to its profound meaning. This antique is great value for money. Also, because our price includes perfect packing and worldwide shipping from our store to your door in just 4 days. Maximum height x width x depth: 46.4 x 33.75 x 6 inches. We have a passion for the unique, for quality, for stylish and meaningful and for craftsmanship of years gone by. Your purchases will be extremely well packaged and we look forward to serving you (again). You can shop all our 1000+ listings by pushing the button that reads 'View All From Seller'.

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...

Art Decò Hand Carved Wooden Crucifix with Stunning Bronze Corpus of Christ
Located in Miami, FL
Crucifix from the mid-1800s with a carved shroud or veil depicting Christ in the base. This unique and remarkable antique crucifix can both be used as a table and as a wall crucifix. Over the decades we have sold a number of unique and very well crafted crucifixes, but never one in the Art Decò style with this combination of materials and techniques. The overall design and size is what stands out first, but the details and the materials are what make this antique work of religious art extraordinary. The relatively large base of this unique crucifix is a work of religious art in its own right. It is almost as if the cross is growing from this beautiful base and the cross itself too comes with a number of superbly inlays details. With their symbolic meaning of birth and resurrection it is obvious why the artist / sculptor so tastefully incorporated them here. Apart from a minor 'lean' to the left, the cross itself too is in excellent condition. If one were to speak of a trinity in this crucifix then the unique base and cross are completed with an equally striking, solid bronze corpus of Christ...
