This Corpus Christi with Cross and Base is an authentic work of sacred art, carved with the meticulous care that distinguishes Val Gardena craftsmanship. The sculpture depicts Jesus Christ at the moment of supreme sacrifice, with an expression of profound suffering and abandonment, captured in the details of the reclined face, half-closed eyes, and crown of thorns.
The attention to anatomical detail is extraordinary: the subtly hinted ribs and tensed musculature are noticeable. The loincloth, draped in a vibrant dark blue, is sculpted with deep folds that simulate moving fabric. The wounds on the hands, feet, and side are highlighted with reddish tones, in contrast to the delicate flesh-colored nuances of the body. The "INRI" scroll is precisely placed above Christ's head.
The cross and the polygonal base maintain the natural color of the wood, enhancing its grain. This Crucifix is made of maple wood for sizes up to 56 cm, and precious linden wood for larger sizes. This selection, faithful to artisan tradition, guarantees maximum definition and durability in every available format.
