Señor de las Tribulaciones, Religious sculpture in Iglesia de San Francisco de Asís, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain
The Señor de las Tribulaciones depicts Jesus Christ in an Ecce Homo representation through a bust made with glued fabrics technique inside the church.
The sculpture arrived at the Franciscan Convent of San Pedro de Alcántara in 1802 as a donation from José Carta after being housed in Hospital de Dolores.
The sculpture plays a central role during Holy Week processions, particularly on Holy Tuesday, accompanied by ecclesiastical representatives and the Municipal Music Band.
The church welcomes visitors throughout the year, with the sculpture being particularly visible during religious ceremonies and regular worship services.
During the cholera epidemic of 1893, a procession with this sculpture through Santa Cruz streets led to the end of the disease outbreak.
