About the Item
19th century life-size corpus Christi figure leg
We are proud to offer a very unusual religious artifact, dating from early to mid-19th century and either Spanish or Italian in origin. This hand carved, section formed leg would have originally been attached to a large figure of Christ. Likely from a procession figure in kneeling position. This form still has all its origin sections, dowl jointed fittings and original paint. Wonderfully detailed and an exceptional carving just as a sculptural form we believe. From an interior point of view, it could be hung from a ceiling, used as a piece of wall art coming out of a wall, or can stand in the corner of a room. Macabre in visual appeal and just a very unusual important 19th century item. The whole figure would have been quite spectacular as you can image.
