Large 18th century Italian figure of Christ adorned with calcite and resting on a calcite crystal cluster in matrix. The figure of Christ was originally part of a crucifix from a church in Tuscany. The figure still has the original paint showing the pierced side of Jesus and the gold leaf cloth covering around his waist.
The calcite crystal in matrix from Elmwood Mine, Tennessee is an example of the world's finest crystallized calcite. With the unusual formation of sphalerite and galena, it is unequaled by those from any other part of the world (referenced from the "American Mineral Treasure" book, pg. 337).
Isaiah 52:14 says, "Just as many were appalled at him - his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any human being and his form marred beyond human likeness." This prophecy of the crucifixion of Jesus is the inspiration behind this piece. It is a depiction of how Christ was broken and how his grace transforms us in our humanity, making us whole.
The last photo was taken in Monreale Cathedral in Palermo, Sicily and represents how the Italian Figure of Christ would have traditionally been shown in its original context.
Together, the figure of Christ and calcite in matrix create a figurative, contemporary work of historic significance.
