A very rare and large limestone sculptural head of Christ, French Scool, probably 11th. century to 12th. century, early in the period! This piece was bought in Albi and is reportedly from Tolouse.

Lovely archaic medieval features of the dead or suffering christ with his eyes closed. He is looking almost peacefully, with his head slightly twisted to a side and pronounced lips, a thin / hungry look and a short beard. The piece probably from a niche, with the reverse half-finished.
