Liturgical use
The statue of the Dead Christ is the centrepiece of Good Friday processions in Italian parishes, carried on the shoulders of the confraternity through the streets of the town. It is also displayed in the sepulchre chapel during the Paschal Triduum for the veneration of the faithful. The 160 cm length corresponds to natural human stature and ensures the greatest devotional impact in processions and in the setting of the liturgical sepulchre.
