Description from the seller
Antique Plaster Bas-Relief – The Crucifixion (Late 19th/Early 20th Century)
A timeless piece of academic art with enduring charm.
For sale, a rare raised plaster medallion depicting a scene of the Crucifixion with extraordinarily dramatic intensity. This object is not a simple decoration, but a piece that preserves the flavor of past artistic studios, where plaster casts were used as models for definitive bronze castings or as autonomous works.
Why this piece is special:
Authentic Material: Plaster, a noble yet fragile material, allows capturing every single imprint of the artist. The surface bears the typical marks of handwork, making the piece unique.
Old Patina: The surface finish, with its brown and golden hues, masterfully imitates ancient bronze, giving the object visual depth and making it perfect for refined interiors.
Sculptural Style: The figure of Christ is shaped with the vigor typical of the late Romantic or Symbolist period, emphasizing movement and suffering that immediately draws the eye.
Authentic Back: The back (visible in the photo) shows the rough structure and signs of wear, a guarantee of a piece that is not modern or industrial.
Technical Details:
Material: Plaster / era plaster.
Subject: Jesus on the Cross with INRI tablet.
Era: 19th – early 20th century.
Condition: Excellent vintage preservation. Shows small signs of time that do not detract from its beauty, but rather increase its authenticity.
Installation: Equipped with a hole to be hung directly on the wall or inserted into a box frame.
DIMENSIONS 14X14X1CM
A piece of great atmosphere, perfect for those seeking an object that tells a story.
