CrimsonKairos Posted March 14, 2007 Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 I need your help everyone. I recently purchased a 19" white marble version of Thorvaldsen's "Christus" sculpture (which I'm very excited about). What I'm looking for now are smaller statues of Christ in Gethsemane and on the cross of Calvary, respectively. In other words, two smaller, separate statues. Does anyone know where I can find such statues online? I've looked and googled but to no avail. I really would like two such statues to complete a small personal collection I'm assembling. Thanks for any help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I've seen the kind of statues you're describing at Christian book stores. You might look up that source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimsonKairos Posted March 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2007 Thanks for the link, 'berry. That site does have a Gethsemane statue, so that's cool. As for Christ on the cross, I actually looked through all 556 products on that site last night! Unfortunately, our Church places so little emphasis on Calvary and the cross that I'm confident I'll never find a statue of Christ on the cross from an LDS source. Rosewood, thanks. I think I may have to go to an actual Christian store to find what I'm looking for as far as the cross statue. The LDS Church membership seems to view images of the cross with disdain. I've looked at non-denom Christian stores online but they don't really have any ouststanding statues of the cross either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosewood Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 Oh, I just thought of something. I used to get a catalogue from a Catholic church store; It was full of Christ on the cross statues (and leprechauns). They're really into that. Well, good luck.

Dr T Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 Was Jesus the QB or the receiver? Pass interference! Where are the flags on the play? Ok, he was the quarterback... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosewood Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Yeah the football player, definately the funniest one! On the other hand, whose to say? If He ever interacts with us on earth, maybe he'll play with football with the youth. I can't really see it in a skirt though. I sure don't think he'd play church basketball.
