Italian wood carving depicting Christ Blessing, 18th century
Height x width x depth: 55 x 30 x 17 cm
The figure of the risen Christ is carved in a solemn attitude, with his right arm raised in a gesture of blessing and his left arm slightly open. The body is half-naked, covered by a cloth that wraps around the hips and falls over the legs, while a cloak rests on the left shoulder.
The figure's face has a beard and wavy hair, reinforcing the typical iconography of Christ. The irregularly carved base could represent a rock or a cloud, alluding to the resurrection and ascension.
