The Crucifixion

Deutsche Grafik 1460–1470, 1470-es évek

The image shows an illustration depicting three figures: Jesus on the cross and two figures on either side of him. Jesus is shown upright on the cross with his arms extended and nailed horizontally. He has a crown of thorns, long hair, and wears a cloth around his waist. To the left stands a figure, possibly Mary, wearing a long dress and a head covering. To the right stands another figure, possibly John, dressed in a robe and cloak. Both figures have halos. The background is a subtle blue shade representing the sky, and below the illustration is medieval-style text. The scene is framed by a rectangular border separating the illustration from the text below.
