Crucified Christ with base. Wood, mother-of-pearl. Jerusalem. 18th century A crucified Christ is depicted on a cross with a triangular base decorated with mother-of-pearl elements featuring engraved and tinted details, and darker wood combined to create floral, vegetal, and simple geometric motifs. The front is adorned with the IHS symbol surmounted by a cross above the three nails of Christ. The shape of this Latin cross and its decoration are reminiscent of examples created in the Holy Land during the 18th and 19th centuries as souvenirs for pilgrims, gifts for dignitaries, and so on.
