EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white drawing, titled "The Flagellation," is an 18th-century masterpiece by the Italian artist Ubaldo Gandolfi. Created in the early 1770s, this work of art is a powerful depiction of the Passion of Christ as described in the New Testament. In this scene, Christ is shown being flagellated, or whipped, at the column. The figures surrounding Him are depicted with intense emotion and conviction, their faces contorted in pain and anguish. The drawing is executed in pen and brown ink with brush and brown wash over black chalk on cream laid paper, laid down on cream wove paper. The use of contrasting textures and tonal variations creates a sense of depth and dimension, drawing the viewer into the scene. The Flagellation is a poignant reminder of the suffering and sacrifice of Jesus Christ, a central figure in Christianity. This work of art is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Italy during the 18th century and the enduring power of religious art to move and inspire. The drawing is currently on exhibit at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it is a cherished addition to their extensive collection of prints and drawings. The Art Institute, located in the heart of Chicago, Illinois, is a renowned cultural institution that showcases a diverse range of art from around the world and throughout history. A visit to this esteemed gallery is a must for anyone interested in art, history, or the human experience.
