Rediscovered by Harte International Galleries - the original wax sculpture, “Christ of St. John of the Cross”, by Salvador Dali has been found - after spending over 40 years in the vault of a private collector.
In 1978, Salvador Dali chose to create a sculpture which he entitled “Christ of St. John of the Cross” - the same name as the most important religious painting of his career - which hangs in the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow, Scotland.Inspired by the drawing by the 15th century friar Saint John of Spain, Dali’s famous painting was certainly the most inspiring view of Christ as he was being crucified - from a heavenly view.
Now, revisited after all these years, we find Dali’s inspirational, 3D image of the evolution of Christ's crucifixion and his entry into the heavens. Dali has used the medium of a sculpture in wax to represent the most important Biblical event - the raising of Christ to his heavenly throne.
