Veronica - Jesus Christ's Passion, 18th Century Spanish Painting Oil on Canvas

Description: This is an 18th-century Spanish school painting representing the 6th station of the Passion of Christ, where Saint Veronica wipes the face of Jesus. It was originally part of a larger collection depicting all the Stations of the Cross, commonly placed in churches for worship and reflection on Christ's final journey. These collections of religious artwork played an integral role in Christian liturgical spaces, guiding the faithful through moments of deep spiritual reflection during Holy Week and beyond. The painting showcases Veronica holding the cloth with Christ’s face, Jesus bearing the cross, and Roman soldiers in the background. The inscription "INRI" enhances its symbolic power. The piece is framed in a modern, gilded wooden frame featuring baroque motifs reminiscent of the Louis XIV - Régence style, complementing the artwork’s period. Some small restorations are noticeable at the bottom of the frame, and the painting itself has undergone relining, a common restoration process to preserve the canvas’s integrity over time. This rare piece offers both historical and spiritual value, making it ideal for collectors or worshippers. Its powerful imagery and the devotional context of the Passion make it a deeply moving artwork, suitable for anyone seeking a meaningful Christian artifact. Measurements 90x68 cm. Condition Excellent overall condition. Small 2 restorations at the bottom, not noticeable.
