An antique Colonial Peruvian alabaster tile depicting a crucifix scene. Carved from alabaster, a type of translucent and finely grained stone, this tile would have been part of a larger religious installation. The crucifix scene depicted on the tile portrays the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, a central narrative in Christian theology and iconography. Such religious imagery played a crucial role in the religious and cultural life of colonial Peru, reflecting the influence of Spanish Catholicism on indigenous artistic traditions.
