Description from the seller

Antique Hand-Carved Wooden Sculpture of the Risen Christ

A finely carved wooden sculpture depicting the Risen Christ, an iconic representation of Christ’s triumph over death and resurrection in the Christian tradition. The figure is shown holding the Resurrection Banner, a powerful symbol of victory, faith, and eternal life.

Entirely crafted from wood, this sculpture displays a remarkable sense of balance and elegance. The serene facial expression, carefully modeled anatomy, and flowing drapery reveal the skill of the artisan and give the piece a strong devotional presence. The folds of the garment are carved with great sensitivity, creating movement and depth, while the banner adds both symbolic and visual interest to the composition.

The wood has developed a rich, dark patina over time, enhancing its authenticity and decorative appeal. The surface shows natural age-related wear consistent with its history, contributing to the character and charm of the piece.

Based on its style, craftsmanship, and overall appearance, the sculpture is believed to date from the late 19th century to the early 20th century (circa 1880–1930), although its exact age and origin remain unknown.

Condition
Good overall condition. Structurally sound and well preserved, with minor signs of age and use. The sculpture retains a beautiful patina and displays attractively.
