Crucifix

Galižana (Croatia), 13th century
Wood
Poreč Basilica, Croatia

In the Romanesque manner, Jesus is pictured alive, with arms fully extended and wearing a skirt. The feet are not nailed to the suppedenaeum; they are firmly planted on it as if he were standing on his own.

The two drill holes above the head were probably for an INRI plaque.
