EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful image captures the moment of Christ's capture, a pivotal event in the Passion of Jesus. Created by the renowned artist Albrecht Dürer in 1511, this woodcut watercolour from The Great Passion series is a masterpiece of Christian art. The scene depicts Christ being led away by soldiers after his betrayal by Judas in the Garden of Gethsemane.
Dürer's attention to detail and emotional depth bring this biblical story to life, as we see Christ surrounded by figures filled with anguish and aggression. The composition conveys a sense of movement and drama, with Christ at the center embodying both strength and vulnerability.
The intricate lines and shading create a sense of texture and depth, drawing viewers into the scene as if they were witnessing it firsthand. This print serves as a poignant reminder of Christ's sacrifice and suffering for humanity's salvation.
Displayed in the Sachsische Landesbibliothek - Staats- und Universitatsbibliothek Dresden, this artwork continues to inspire contemplation and reflection on the enduring themes of faith, redemption, and compassion. Dürer's skillful rendering captures not only physical details but also spiritual truths that resonate across time and cultures.
