Questo Cristo finemente scolpito può essere confrontato con le opere realizzate da Giovanni Pisano e dalla sua bottega all'inizio del secolo XIV. In particolare si paragoni il trattamento dei capelli e del perizoma dalle profonde pieghe con quelle del Cristo dell'Opera del Duomo di Siena illustrato da Lisner.

The present finely carved corpus can be closely compared with the the work of Giovanni Pisano and his workshop of the early fourteenth century.  Compare in particular the treatment to the hair and the perizonium, intricately carved with deep folds in the round, with the wood corpus in the Opera del Duomo Siena illustrated by Lisner.
