EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases John Henry Mols' "Elevation Of The Cross" an oil on canvas masterpiece that measures 123.5x94 cm and is housed in the Calderdale Museums Service, West Yorkshire, UK. This stunning artwork is a faithful reproduction of Rubens' original painting found in Antwerp Cathedral. The image captures a moment of intense contortion and effort as bare-chested men strain to lift the cross, depicting one of the Stations of the Cross. Their muscled bodies showcase their physical exertion and suffering as they heave together to raise it upright. The dynamic motion portrayed in this history painting evokes a sense of struggle and determination. In the midst of this scene, Jesus Christ stands tall with his walking stick or cane, embodying both vulnerability and strength. His presence adds depth to the composition, emphasizing his role in this crucifixion narrative. This print not only highlights Mols' meticulous attention to detail but also invites viewers to reflect on themes such as sacrifice, redemption, and human resilience. It serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring significance behind religious iconography while capturing a timeless moment frozen in paint.
