Description from the seller
Typology: Sacred wall sculpture / Artistic crucifix
Era: Second half of the 20th century (approximately the 1960s-1970s)
Material: heavy cast metal alloy (non-magnetic)
Finish: original dark patina from the period with a tactile, coarse texture
Dimensions: 34 x 19 cm
Details and Condition:
Refined wall crucifix characterized by a strong modernist and Brutalist aesthetic.
The stylized, geometric figure of Christ is harmoniously integrated into the linear structure of the cross.
The object was made entirely by artisanal techniques: the rear surface shows the characteristic rough and irregular finish typical of workshop artistic casting, free from industrial serial marks.
The metal has been tested and is totally non-magnetic (does not attract magnets), confirming the use of a copper-based alloy (bronze/brass) rather than iron or common steel.
The upper part features an original through-hole designed for wall mounting.
The piece presents in excellent vintage condition, with a beautiful period patina that underscores its depth and sculptural volumes.
Perfect for collectors of 20th-century sacred art, mid-century modern design, and Brutalist design.
