Crucifix - .915 silver - 1950-1960, 1940-1950

A tabletop crucifix in sterling silver, Dalí-style or surrealist in aesthetic, featuring a stylized, flowing figure of Christ with pronounced organic lines, set on a rectangular base of veined black marble. This design freely draws inspiration from the famous work of the Catalan painter Salvador Dalí, particularly his three-dimensional approach to the crucifixion where elongated proportions and the suspension of the anatomy defy traditional realism. Jesus' body seems to melt and stretch dramatically, granting dynamism and a distinctly modern, artistic character to a sacred devotion piece. 20x10x4 cm. Total weight 182 grams. Some tarnish on the silver oxide. Well preserved. Carefully packaged for shipment.
