Jesus the Good Shepherd Religious Garden Statue

This is a full-length religious figurative sculpture depicting Jesus Christ as 'The Good Shepherd'. The statue is rendered in a classical, traditional style, standing on a rectangular tiered plinth base. It is likely constructed of cast stone, concrete, or a heavy resin composite, finished in a weathered white or off-white paint intended to mimic aged stone or marble. The figure is shown with flowing hair and a beard, wearing long, draped robes with detailed folds that provide a sense of movement. He cradles a small lamb in his right arm while his left hand holds a tall shepherd's crook (crozier), which appears to be made of wood or a different contrasting material from the main body. A second sheep stands obediently at his left heel. The casting shows a high level of detail in the facial expression, the wool of the sheep, and the anatomical features of the hands and feet. Regarding its condition, the statue exhibits significant surface weathering consistent with outdoor exposure; there is visible peeling and flaking of the white finish, particularly on the drapery folds and base, revealing a darker grey material underneath. This creates a natural distressed patina that suggests a mid-to-late 20th-century manufacture date. There are minor abrasions and surface dirt accumulation, but the structural integrity appears sound without major fractures or missing limbs.
