The Body of the Dead Christ, detail of the feet
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a hauntingly powerful painting by Hans Holbein the Younger. Created in 1521, this tempera on limewood masterpiece captures the raw emotion and physicality of death. Measuring 30.5x200 cm, it is housed in the Kunstmuseum in Basel, Switzerland. In this particular detail, our focus is drawn to Christ's feet - a poignant reminder of his humanity and sacrifice. The meticulous attention to detail is evident as we see every contour and wrinkle on his lifeless skin. The artist's signature and date are prominently displayed alongside the feet, adding an air of authenticity to this profound work. Holbein masterfully depicts not only the wounds inflicted upon Jesus' body but also hints at decay and putrefaction with subtle touches like discolored flesh and traces of blood. Through these elements, he invites viewers to contemplate mortality and reflect on their own mortality. This painting serves as a testament to Holbein's exceptional skill in capturing human anatomy with precision while evoking deep emotional responses from its audience. It stands as a timeless representation of Christ's suffering that continues to resonate with viewers even today.
