AN IRISH CARVED PENAL CROSS DATED 1759 Craved arbutus or yew, suspension loop above the front with INRI above Christ in relief, small copper pin detailing to crown of thorns and chest, below ladder, spear and skull and crossbones, the reverse with further cross above heart, date panel and rooster and pot 36cm high, 7.5cm wide The carving of such private devotional artefacts coincided with the implementation of The Penal Laws. Lucas states that: " The manufacture of crucifixes of an undoubted "penal" type in the locality for sale to the pilgrims of the mid-nineteenth, suggests the possibility that the whole genus of these objects may be associated with the Lough Derg pilgrimage " although, as this example shows, the tradition predates this. Lucas, A.T. (1954) '"Penal" Crucifixes' Journal of Louth Archaeological Society Vol. XIII (No. 2), 145-174 Condition Report: The whole of good colour and surface- some shrinkage cracks to right arm of cross with old pinned repair. Small edge wear and loss and to some of the raised detail such as part of crossed bones, Wear, marks, knocks and scratches as per age, handling, use, and cleaning. Please see additional images for visual references to condition which form part of this condition report. All lots are available for inspection and Condition Reports are available on request. However, all lots are of an age and type which means that they may not be in perfect condition and should be viewed by prospective bidders; please refer to Condition 6 of the Conditions of Business for Buyers. This is particularly true for garden related items. Condition Report Disclaimer
