About the Item
This chiseled bronze processional cross cap dates to the 17th century and was produced in Spain. The piece corresponds to the Christ of the Agony and historically belonged to the parish of San Pedro de Ariznoa, located in the town of Vergara in the province of Guipuzcoa.
Handcrafted in bronze, the object demonstrates skilled chiseling work, with carefully modeled details that reflect the devotional and artistic traditions of Spanish religious metalwork from the early modern period. Designed as the upper element of a processional cross, the cap would have played both a structural and symbolic role within liturgical processions, serving as a focal point of veneration.
The expressive treatment of the figure conveys the solemnity and emotional intensity associated with representations of Christ’s suffering during this period. As a liturgical artifact, the piece embodies the close relationship between craftsmanship, faith, and ritual practice in 17th century Spain. Today, it stands as a significant example of ecclesiastical metalwork, offering historical, artistic, and devotional value for collectors and institutions interested in religious art and heritage objects.
