Unique & Powerful Italian Antique Crucifix w. a Stunning Bronze Corpus of Christ

About the Item

Large antique Baroque crucifix with stunning details and an amazing patina. Because of the quality in the detail or because of the perfect anatomy or because of a perfect facial expression, some sculptures are in a league of their own. When it comes to most of those things, this sculpture of Christ (as you can see in our images) is right up there with the best. The artist who sculpted this impressive work of religious art has created a church relic that is second to none. The body posture, the anatomy and the multi-level depth of this crucifix (with a wooden wall plaque, a gilt bronze cross and a bronze corpus) make this crucifix very special. But what makes this sizeable and impressive crucifix more powerful and compelling than most is the suffering facial expression of Christ. It really makes this church relic stand out from anything you may have ever seen. In many parts of the world humanity has come a long way since the life of Christ, but a lot of His work still needs to be done and He keeps inspiring many of us to move forward. The artist whom created this antique himself too must have been inspired by the life and history of Christ, because how else can anyone create such a masterpiece. This antique is great value for money. Also, because perfect packing and worldwide delivery from our store to your door in just 4 days are complimentary. Maximum height x width x depth 32 x 14.5 x 4.7 inches. Weight: 21 pounds or 9.1 kilogram.

Antique Crucifix w. Bronze Corpus and Stunning Hand Carved Oakwood Cross
Located in Lisse, NL
Good size, finest quality and superb condition antique wall crucifix. This antique work of religious art consists of a top quality carved, oakwooden cross and a superbly hand-crafted bronze corpus of Christ with a beautiful patina. 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. This bronze sculpture of Christ clearly depicts Jesus just shortly after the suffering has ended and His body could no longer hold on to life. People think of different things when looking at Christ who died on the cross, but no matter what you think of most, this antique crucifix...

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. Mind you, our fair price for this unique and very large, Midcentury crucifix...

Art Deco 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 Deco 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...
