Crucifixion group

Description

A Crucifixion group in ivory. The bottom of the shaft of the cross is present but the remainder is missing. There are five figures around the base of cross shaft, perhaps the Virgin, one of the holy woman and St John among them. The instruments of the passion are also present. Probably from the colony of Macao, China.
