About the Item

This beautiful antique Christ statue was hand carved in France, circa 1780. Standing on a octagonal integral base, the sculpture depicts our Lord Jesus Christ, a fine example of ecclesiastical art from that period. The figure is depicted with classical features, standing in a serene and benevolent pose. The craftsmanship is evident in the detailed carving of the robes, facial expressions, and gestures. The walnut wood gives the statue a warm, rich tone, and has likely aged beautifully over centuries, adding to its patina and character. Such statues were often used in churches or private chapels, embodying the deep spiritual devotion of the era. This piece is both a work of art and a sacred object, reflecting the religious fervor and artistic skill of 18th-century France. The tall religious statue is in good condition commensurate with age and use, with wonderful facial and hand details, and adorns a rich walnut patina. Right hand missing. 8"W x 6"D x 28.5"H
