EDITORS COMMENTS
**The Agony and Sacrifice: A Powerful Depiction of The Crucifixion**
In this hauntingly beautiful print, created in 1487 by the skilled hands of Master of the Virgo inter Virgines, we are transported to a momentous scene from the New Testament - The Crucifixion. This masterpiece of medieval art captures the anguish and despair that Jesus Christ endured as he gave his life for humanity.
The composition is striking, with Christ's figure at its center, his body contorted in agony as he bears the weight of our sins on Calvary. His eyes are cast downward, a symbol of resignation to God's will. The Virgin Mary and Saint John stand nearby, their faces etched with grief and sorrow.
The artist's use of oil on panel creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, drawing the viewer into this pivotal moment in Christian history. Every brushstroke seems infused with emotion, as if Master of the Virgo inter Virgines himself was present at Golgotha to witness Christ's sacrifice.
This powerful image has been preserved for centuries, now part of the esteemed Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection and Museum. It serves as a poignant reminder of Jesus' ultimate act of love and redemption - an enduring testament to his passion that continues to inspire devotion in people around the world.
