From the brushstrokes of renowned artists such as Francesco Solimena, Sir Anthony van Dyck, Lucas Cranach the Elder, Pieter Paul Rubens, and many others, these masterpieces transport us into the heart-wrenching moments leading up to Christ's ultimate sacrifice.

Van Dyck's "The Crucified Christ with the Virgin Mary" captures a tender moment between mother and son amidst an atmosphere of sorrowful devotion. Cranach's "The Flagellation of Christ" takes us back in time to witness Jesus' brutal scourging at Pilate's command. Similarly, Rubens' rendition portrays this agonizing event with vivid intensity – every stroke conveying both physical pain and spiritual significance. As we delve deeper into this sacred journey, Jan van Eyck's enigmatic piece titled "The Way to Calvary" invites contemplation on our own personal struggles along life's path. The triptych by an anonymous artist showcases eleven scenes from Christ's Passion in exquisite detail – each panel revealing layers of emotion and symbolism. Within Mattia Preti’s powerful depiction in "The Descent from the Cross, " we are confronted with raw grief as figures lower Jesus' body down from Golgotha. Meanwhile, in another era entirely, Gossaert’s haunting portrayal in “The Mocking of Christ” compels us to reflect upon human cruelty juxtaposed against divine grace.
