For the collector! Here is a really uncommon, anthropormorphic, 18thc or previously, cristos/ santos piece from Mexico. This is a wonderful, antique, sculpted, polychrome Jesus … initial paint with glass eyes that have an emotional look., with a tactile, used patina to the paint scattered wood from age and handling. His facial expression is captivating due to the articulation of his glass eyes however also the method the paint has actually worn on his face. It even has carved eyelids. I purchased him from a dear friend who was very ill and required the cash. I can not believe he wished to offer it but he needed to. This piece produces an excellent decorative item and discussion piece. It’s practical eyes catch Jesus’ suffering.
Outstanding condition, the cristos has chips and nicks to the polychrome as photographed and anticipated. It just vouches for the age. The base is not initial to the piece but a later addition. I suppose he originally had a full body and hung from a cross however his is all that is left of this fantastic christos/ santos. It is a special piece. You will certainly love.
The only reason that I am not keeping this cristos in my belongings is because I have actually chosen to liquidate my spiritual art collection. Keep examining in as I list items daily.
