EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the profound and emotive artwork of "The Crucifixion" by the Master of Hamburg, painted around 1500. Measuring at an impressive 197x130 cm, this oil on panel masterpiece is housed in the prestigious Hamburger Kunsthalle in Hamburg, Germany. The painting depicts the crucifixion scene with meticulous attention to detail. The landscape serves as a haunting backdrop for the central cross where Jesus Christ hangs, surrounded by figures that evoke deep emotions. Mary Magdalene's grief-stricken face reflects her sorrowful devotion to Christ, while an angel hovers nearby offering solace. Intriguing elements such as a shroud, two thieves being crucified alongside Jesus, and a lance piercing his side add layers of symbolism and narrative depth. Even amidst this solemn moment, one can spot devilish figures playing dice below - representing temptation and evil forces at work. Other significant characters include Virgin Mary holding a sponge soaked in vinegar offered to quench her son's thirst; Longinus who inflicted the wound with his spear; angels hovering above; and donors observing from architectural structures. "The Crucifixion" not only showcases artistic mastery but also explores themes of sacrifice, redemption, and human suffering. This powerful image invites viewers to contemplate their own faith and reflect on the enduring impact of this pivotal event in Christian history.
