13th Century Period Wood Carved Polychrome Sculpture of Corpus Christi
Rare and beautiful sculpture of Corpus Christi. The artwork, probably German, is carved from hardwood. This fragmentary but sensitively carved sculpture exhibits the stylistic elements of the 13th century. The missing arms, originally separate pieces, were held in place by dowels. Despite losses, the torso retains its integrity and great sculptural power arising from the careful modeling of the body. The original remains of polychrome paint are partly obscured by later overpainting.
Condition is good commensurate with 700 years of age.
Measurements: Carving Only - H 11 ½” x W 2 ½” x D 3”
