A German 18th century carved ivory figure of Christ at the Column

This depiction of Christ dressed only in a perizonium standing with bound hands beside a short, fluted column is designed for a frontal viewpoint and shows the Saviour bending forward towards the devotional beholder.
The ivory with vertical hairline cracks. Minor replacements to the wood. Mounted on a wooden plinth. Height 24.5 cm (without plinth).
