Dupon Brugge – Christus Koning – polychromed plaster – Belgium – circa 1930–1950 Professionally shipped – more than 1000 five-star reviews worldwide. Large sculpture of Christ the King, crowned and with the right hand raised in blessing. In his left hand he holds an open book bearing the words “Rex ego sum”: “I am the king,” a reference to his answer to Pontius Pilate.
