Germany Wieskirche Scourged Christ Rococo Pilgrimage Art Postcard

This original vintage color postcard features the Gnadenbild des gegeißelten Heilandes, the revered image of the Scourged Christ located within the Wies Pilgrimage Church near Steingaden in Bavaria, Germany. The dramatic sculpture is framed by an elaborate Rococo altar designed by Dominikus Zimmermann, whose work defined Bavarian church architecture of the mid-18th century. The Wieskirche, built between 1746 and 1754, is internationally recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and remains an important Catholic pilgrimage destination. This postcard captures both the devotional significance of the sculpture and the ornate artistry of the church interior. Published by Verlag Gebr. Metz of Tübingen, this unposted continental-size chrome postcard is well suited for collectors of religious ephemera, European pilgrimage sites, and historic church art.
