Rare Painting Of Christ Child, Oil On Panel XVIIth Century.

Rare and astonishing representation of Christ as a child, wearing his large 17th century dress and a collar. A multitude of signs symbolizing the life of Christ appear on his clothing. At the bottom of her dress, you can guess the sins of the world such as gluttony or lust. We also see a rooster symbolizing the denial of St Peter. Going up, we see the torture of Christ with a nail, a hammer, a ladder, whips, the crown of thorns. The top of the robe ending in the cross with the three nails symbolizing his crucifixion. With his right hand he blesses, with his left hand he carries the world with its sins. This atypical painting is a long reading of signs and symbols, making this painting rare and surprising. A collector's item. Oil on panel, work from the 17th century. This painting is in good condition, note a small dent in the wood, natural wear. The frame is a golden strip fixed around the edge of the panel. Dimensions: 58cm x 43.5cm
