Description from the seller

Sculpture of Christ inspired by "Christ of Saint John of the Cross by Dalí" - 20th Century - Large format

Striking relief sculpture depicting Christ crucified, clearly inspired by the iconic work "Christ of Saint John of the Cross" by Salvador Dalí, one of the most recognizable images in 20th-century religious art.

The piece stands out for its dramatic and expressive composition, with Christ's body seen from an elevated perspective, emphasizing spirituality, contemplation, and the emotional intensity of the moment. This vision, far from the traditional bloody drama, directly connects with the symbolic and mystical approach that made the original work famous.

This is a decorative large-format sculpture*, perfect for both religious interiors and spaces of collection, private galleries, or environments seeking a powerful and contemplative artistic presence. Its contained depth allows it to be hung easily on a wall, functioning as a central piece with a strong visual impact.

It presents careful execution, with balanced proportion modeling and a clear reading of volume, conveying solemnity and sculptural character.

This work is a bronze sculpture using lost-wax casting, a three-dimensional representation of the famous oil painting from 1951.
A work of art with a strong character that reproduces one of the most famous works of the "Christ of Saint John of the Cross"
Title: Christ of Saint John of the Cross (or Dalí’s Crucifix).
Material: Bronze.
Style: Abstract and surrealist.
Sought to represent the metaphysical aspect of Christ rather than his suffering.
A true jewel.
