Scultura, An imposing late-Gothic Christ sculpture - 127 cm - Noce
- Sculpted walnutwood, modelled by time and history into an artwork of mature and savoury character. Rests of wood-boring insects.
Magnificent late Gothic crucified Christ carved in wood, which has lost its arms and head. Its pronounced anatomy, the brief loincloth, and the intensity of the modeling suggest that this sculpture is reminiscent of late 15th-century French sculpture.
Fifteenth-century French sculpture is characterized by a movement that gradually abandoned the idealization and serene elegance of the International Gothic style in favor of a more direct, human, and often expressionistic realism, influenced by Flemish rigor. This Christ exemplifies this trend, where the figure is no longer a glorious body, but a tormented and earthly one, reflecting the Devotio Moderna, which emphasized individual piety and the physical suffering of Christ.
- Good, stable condition.
- Measurements: 31.5 x 127 x 11.5 cm
- Good condition, with minor wear.
- The artwork will be shipped and packed professionally, and delivered to you in no time.
