Christ In Suffering.

Christ crucified in bronze with brown patina treated in one piece in the round. Christ in Suffering; the arms in a “V” stretched symmetrically on either side of the axis of the body. His eyes open, his head tilted to the right without a crown of thorns; his hair falls in long locks over his back and shoulders on either side of his bearded face. His hands are clenched; Slightly swaying to the right, his legs remain parallel, the right one is however slightly bent, his feet symmetrical. Feet and hands are pierced with nails. His musculature is pronounced without being exacerbated but the veins of his body are. Christ is only dressed in a simple perizionum, with strongly pleated drapery, tied on the left hip without cords. All the essential characteristics of the crucified Christ who appeared during the reign of Louis XIV are present, marking a profound break with the dogma of traditional iconography. Movement influenced by the paintings of Rubens or Van Dyck which circulated during the reign of the great monarch century throughout Europe which largely inspired. Particular attention has been paid to the carving of the hair, the beard as well as the features of the face, which is very sensitive. Christ is presented to us in suffering, exhausted in agony, but all the time, a real serenity emerges from his face. It should be noted that the nail of the right hand of Christ is missing.
