- Lot Description
North America, USA, ca. mid 20th century CE. A beautiful high relief plaster rendering of the Station of the Cross XI, Jesus is Nailed to the Cross. This evocative image, featuring Christ surrounded by his followers, his mother Mary, and two Roman soldiers who are driving nails into his hands and feet, is painted with a lifelike color scheme befitting the seriousness of the subject matter. The artist has depicted the scene with great skill - the folds of Christ's clothing, the musculature of the soldiers, and the mournful postures of both women are wonderfully rendered. The plaster is set into a wooden frame that features a cross projecting from its top, bearing the number of the Station, "XI". The Stations of the Cross are a 14-step devotional walk practiced by many western Christian denominations; a representation like this one likely would have graced the interior wall of a church. Size: 15.95" W x 27.75" H (40.5 cm x 70.5 cm)
Provenance: private Dere family collection, New York, USA, assembled between the 1970s and 2000s; ex-Richard Wagner Collection, Massachusetts, USA, acquired in 1970s
