Statue of the Sacred Heart of Jesus

Early 20th-century work – Biscuit porcelain

This elegant sculpture represents Jesus Christ in the traditional iconography of the Sacred Heart: Christ standing, with a gentle and direct gaze, his right hand raised in a gesture of blessing, the other pointing to his flaming Heart, a symbol of divine love and mercy.

Made of biscuit porcelain, the figure is distinguished by the delicacy of its modeling and the softness of its polychromy. The facial features are delicately drawn, the flesh tones subtly nuanced, and the gilded highlights elegantly accentuate the folds of the cloak, the base, and the radiant heart. The whole exudes a peaceful and profoundly devotional presence, characteristic of early 20th-century religious works intended for domestic piety.

The sculpture rests on an integrated, harmoniously proportioned octagonal base, ensuring stability and verticality to the whole.
