Gothic gilded bronze Christ. 14th century.

Large Christ in gilded bronze. His head surrounded by a crown is slightly inclined on the right shoulder. The ribs are well marked, above a long perizonium. Beautiful face offering parallels with the Gothic ivories of Paris and eastern France. The plasticity of the face, the perizonium, the position of the legs lead us to date this Christ during the 14th century. A Very Close Christ was sold at Sotheby's in December 2000, during the sale of the Léopold Kolisch collection.

On a velvet support. Piece appraised by Ms. Laurence Fligny, high period expert.
