"Christ Napoleon III Blackened Pear Tree And All Silver"
Of a good size, one has the impression that Jesus stretches up to the clouds, in this he is close to the Jansenist representations. "Christs whose arms tighten until they are stretched vertically give the impression of being able to accommodate only a part of Humanity. By analogy these Christs are called "Jansenists"". He wears his crown of thorns, and curiously he looks at the heavens. His perizonium is tied in the middle and he has his feet crossed... It is therefore a representation in the style of Napoleon III. It is in silver, like the INRI headband, the serpent with the apple, tempter and the two bruised hearts on the base. Also special are the three golden buttons which end the cross and which refer to the nails of the torture. Since its conception, this crucifix was intended either for a religious order or for noble persons.
