About the piece
Created in 1877 by French artist Albert Maignan, this oil sketch served as a preparatory study for the Church of Saint-Nicolas-des-Champs in Paris. The work captures Christ seated in a majestic yet compassionate pose, calling out to those in suffering. Its moody palette and atmospheric, painterly execution embody the solemn spiritual gravitas of late 19th-century religious art.
