A moving antique medallion depicting the face of Christ, eyes closed and head bowed, encircled by a crown of thorns in relief. The expressiveness of the features, the strong modeling of the hair, and the beautiful green patina attest to careful bronze sculpting. The back is still partially covered with plaster, suggesting former wall mounting. Two small fixing holes suggest a votive or funerary use. A piece of profound spiritual significance.
