The Dead Christ supported by Two Angels
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating masterpiece created by Carlo Crivelli in the late 15th century. This exquisite tempera on poplar painting, measuring 72.4 x 55.2 cm, can be found at the National Gallery in London, UK. The artwork depicts a poignant scene of three individuals - Jesus Christ and two angels - surrounded by a vibrant gold background that adds an ethereal touch to the composition. The figures are beautifully rendered with intricate details and delicate brushwork, showcasing Crivelli's exceptional skill as an artist. The central focus of the painting is the lifeless body of Christ, gently cradled by two sorrowful angels. Their expressions convey deep sadness and melancholy as they support their beloved savior in his moment of ultimate sacrifice. The crown of thorns adorning Jesus' head serves as a powerful symbol of his suffering and crucifixion. Crivelli's religious imagery evokes strong emotions within viewers, inviting them to reflect upon themes such as faith, redemption, and human vulnerability. The halo surrounding each figure signifies their divine nature while emphasizing their spiritual significance. This sacred icon exemplifies Italian Renaissance art at its finest, showcasing Crivelli's mastery in capturing human emotion through color and form. It stands as a testament to both the artist's talent and his devotion to Christian religion. Bridgeman Images has preserved this extraordinary work for generations to come so that art enthusiasts worldwide can appreciate its beauty and contemplate its profound message.
