The Image of Our Lord Jesus Christ of the Holy Sepulchre is an anonymous work of the XVII Century. At the beginning the Brotherhood wanted to assign the work to Ortega Bru, but then they decided to use the ancient Christ, venerated in the Church of the Savior and Saint Dominic of Silos.
It is a Christ on the Cross, died with the arms articulated, which were fixed afterwards. Because of his characteristics, it was thought that it was a work made a local artist, albeit with extensive knowledges of the sevillian school.
It has a head without crown and without potencies (light rays coming out of the Christ head) it appears turned on the right, with the eyes closed, serene and lying. The drops of blood fall on the eyes, as the body were in a vertical way. Its cheeks, very marked as well as his eyebrows, slightly curved. The beard has been done with curly locks, with great symmetry.
The Christ processed till 2006 into an urn in wood, painted in mahogany. This is a work made by sculptor Don Rafael Juliá Villaplana and it was donated by the Town Hall at the end of the XIX Century. The urn is disposed on four legs, it has four glasses sides; the cap is pyramidal and glassed, it is ended with across, in silver. The new Processional Pass was processed for the first time, on Holy Friday in 2007, and it was made by cordovan artists, in a mannerist way.
The Blessed Image of Our Lady of Bereavement in Her Solitude is a work by the sevillian sculptor Luis Álvarez Duarte, made in 1977.
It is an image to dress with candelabrums, and only has the hands and the face carved. Her sight is low, inner, with seriousness. Her eyes are red because of the cry and the restrained griefing, different tears fall on the face.
Next to Her procession two more images: Saint John the Evangelist and Saint Mary Magdalene. Both were done by Luis Álvarez Duarte, but after they were made by cordovan
sculptor Miguel Ángel González Jurado in 1995. Both images
are to dress. |
