Artist:
Attributed to José de Mora, although the latest research attributes it to his brother Diego (18th century). Bárbara Hasbach restored it in 1998.
Interesting details:
This Christ is the one the most deeply respected in the city of Granada. The hand-embroidered tunics of the brotherhood are remarkable and every year the image wears a different tunic. During the rest of the year, the image is dressed in a Trinitarian scapular. Last year the platform bearers changed the way they carried it, now they bear it one their shoulders using a protective padding.
