DOMINGO, EL DIECINUEVE DE SEPTIEMBRE, VIENTE-DIEZ
Jo founds this crucifix while rummaging through some frames at the local thrift store. It's one of the more odd modern crucifixes I seen - the cross is cut in perspective and the corpus is made out of cut out pieces of aluminium. It's missing a couple of pieces, but that just adds to its quirkiness. I see it as my modern 'St John of the Cross' crucifix, because of the strangely-angled crucifix.

so, you are doing that renaissance thing of bring an image of the artist into the image I see, or at least part of the feet.
correct! it's a reverse of Mantegna's 'Lamentation over the Dead Christ', perspective 'n all!
