Beschreibung

A Fine and Large Baroque Carved Ivory of Christ Crucified - Flemish sculptor follower of Claude Beissonat, last quarter 17th Century; ; on a not pertinent wooden cross. This large crucifix conforms to the anatomy, to the face and to the folds of Claude Beissonat’s other pieces, including the ones kept at the Real Academia de San Fernando in Madrid and in the Encarnación convent. All the mentioned cases share the detail of the presence of the four nails that was recovered from early medieval and Byzantine models post-Tridentine Council. The perizome stopped by a rope refers to other works of Beissonat, a Flemish sculptor, which converts Neapolitan exuberance in a rough manner. 97 cm, 38 3⁄16 in high overall, 51 cm, 20 5/64 in wide. Christ 55 cm, 21 21/32 in high - 39.5 cm, 15 35⁄64 in wide. Item condition grading: ***** excellent (old original creamy patina with aged ivory surface). Certificate of Antiquity

Anmerkungen

This lot contains ivory/coral/ tortoiseshell. Due to recent changes in the laws of many countries (e.g. US, France) -  about endangered species including but not limited to coral, ivory and tortoiseshell -  BFA recommends that buyers check with their own government regarding any importation requirements prior to placing a bid. For example, US regulations restrict the import of elephant ivory and prohibit the import of African elephant ivory. Please note that BFAs will not assist buyers with the shipment of this lot into the US. A  buyer's inability to export or import these lots cannot justify a delay in payment or sale cancellation
