Christ Crucified
(Renaissance Europe )
This piece is polychromed with the "estufado" technique and has coagulated blood materialized by nails covered with thick red paint. The wood is eaten out in part at the hands and at the feet. There are breaks at the armpits and above the loin cloth. The cross with metallic decorative strip-ornament is old.
