EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Rueland Frueauf, the Younger's masterpiece "Crucifixion" from 1496. The painting, created with oil on panel, is a powerful representation of one of Christianity's most significant events. Displayed at Stiftsmuseum in Klosterneuburg, Austria, this artwork evokes a sense of solemnity and mourning. The central figure of Jesus Christ hangs upon the cross as Mary Magdalene weeps at his feet. The scene takes place on Calvary Hill amidst two thieves who also face their fate. The artist skillfully portrays the passion and suffering endured by Christ through intricate details such as the lance piercing his side and the mocking gestures from those present. A horse stands nearby, adding an element of wildlife to this renaissance composition. The crucifix itself serves as a symbol of sacrifice and salvation for believers worldwide. With its depiction in this painting, viewers are reminded of both the immense pain endured by Jesus and his role as humanity's savior. While animals like horses are present within this artwork, they serve to enhance its narrative rather than distract from it. This particular print showcases every brushstroke meticulously captured by Bridgeman Images without any commercial use intended. Overall, this print allows art enthusiasts to appreciate Frueauf's talent while reflecting on themes such as faith, redemption, and human mortality that have fascinated generations throughout history.
