• Lot Description

  Devotional painted tile panel depicting Station IV of the Via Crucis (Stations of the Cross): Jesus Meets His Mother, attributed to Brazilian Franciscan artist Fray Arnaldo Marcolino Maas.

   

  The composition is formed from a grid of individual glazed tiles creating a continuous image of Christ carrying the cross while embraced by the Virgin Mary. Executed in a restrained monochrome palette against softly shaded blue-green tiles, the panel reflects the modernist ecclesiastical aesthetic often associated with mid-20th-century church decoration.

   

  A Spanish inscription across the lower tiles reads:
  “Encuentra Jesús a Su Santísima Madre”
  (“Jesus meets His Most Holy Mother”).

   

  Mounted within a wooden support frame used for protection and transport, the panel likely formed part of a larger devotional series created for a church or chapel installation.

   

  Dimensions:
  Approx. 21.5 in. × 21.25 in.

   

  Medium:
  Painted glazed tile panel.

  Condition

Mounted in a wooden support frame for storage and transport. Buyers are encouraged to review all photographs carefully for any small chips, glaze wear, or hairline cracks typical of tile works.
