Antique Wooden Crucifix Figure of Christ - Missing Arms (17th Century)

A haunting and historically resonant fragment of a crucifixion sculpture, this carved wooden figure of Jesus, missing both arms, is likely 17th or 18th century. Despite its fragmentary state, the emotional power of the carving remains undiminished, especially in the facial expression and torso posture.

Such figures were typically mounted on wooden or metal crosses within churches, often dressed in liturgical fabrics. The wear and loss here evoke the passage of time and the persistence of devotion.
