Jesus Crucified Sitting Down

There is a Chuch in the main drag in Melide, that has a very old cross outside it, with Jesus on it (I suppose I should say Crucifix really), where Jesus is depicted as sitting down. I have not had a chance to research this concept as yet, nor to clear-up the picture, but I will.
I thought some of you religious-types out there may be interested. You will probably need to zoom in a bit, but he is definitely seated....(TL).
