Probably Central Rhine Region mid-15th century

A carved wood figure of Christ Resurrected, presumably Central Rhine Region, mid-15th century

Carved in the round and partially freestanding. With extensive remains of older polychromy. A figure of Christ resurrected standing on a bank of clouds designed for a frontal viewpoint. The figure is depicted in a gently swaying pose and would originally have held a victory banner in its extended left hand. Christ is shown with the wound in His side, nude except for a perizonium and a floor length cloak resembling a clerical robe with a tassel hanging from the shoulder.
The right arm and the separately attached left hand lost. Wear with minor losses. Height 91 cm.

Provenance

From a Dutch collection.
