Sažetak
The paper describes the investigation, conservation and restoration of the sculpture of a Crucified Christ which was part of the International Conservation Workshop Lopud (ICWL). The hollow volume of the body was made using maize stalks(Zea mays). The use of this material is part of a technique that is only found in the Mexican art of the 16th and part of the 17th centuries. Formal dependencies as well as technical aspects of this piece are comparable to similar examples found in Mexico and in Spain, which allows us to confirm that this crucifix was an early export to Croatia. This case sheds light on the early contact between Croatia and Mexico and, at the same time, it is an important work of reference for current scholarship on the early lightweight sculpture made in New Spain (present-day Mexico). CT scans, botanical investigation as well as pigment analysis reveal the making of the sculpture, while a short chapter provides an overview of the condition of the piece and its recent restoration.
