Description: | Part of a cast copper alloy figure of Christ from a later medieval crucifix. The surviving fragment measures 72.07mm by 26.43mm by 7.54mm and weighs 32.11g. The figure is worn but has been moulded on both sides. Both arms are outstretched to either side but are incomplete. They and the upper torso are uncovered. The head is tilted to one side and the eyes and nose can be discerned. The legs are close together with one foot behind the other and folds of cloth cover the lower part of the body. This figure presumably graced an altar cross or other crucifix.
