A 18th century carved ivory figure of the crucified christ

Large carved ivory Christ. The head of Christ is raised to the sky and crowned with the crown of thorns. He is dressed in a perizonium with horizontal folds and a pendant on the left side. His feet are side by side and his hands have folded doights. His anatomy is treated with a mastery that is accentuated by a beautiful honey-coloured patina. Presented in an 18th century frame from the Amadeo Montanari Gallery. Restored velvet.

French work from the end of the 18th century.
