EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the intricate details of Jan van Scorel's Triptych of the Crucifixion, painted in 1535. The central panel depicts the dramatic scene of Christ on the cross at Calvary, surrounded by a group of figures including Mary, mother of Jesus, and two thieves - Dismas and Gestas.
Van Scorel's mastery is evident in his portrayal of emotion and movement within this biblical scene. The anguish on Mary's face as she watches her son suffer, the stoic resignation of Christ himself, and the contrasting attitudes of penitent and impenitent thieves all come to life in vivid detail.
The use of light and shadow adds depth to the composition, drawing the viewer into this momentous event from New Testament history. The open-air setting further enhances the sense of realism, transporting us back to ancient times.
This painting is not just a work of art but a powerful depiction of faith and sacrifice that continues to resonate with viewers centuries after it was created. It serves as a reminder of the enduring impact that religious imagery can have on our understanding of life, death, and redemption.
