EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the intense moment of Station of the Cross No. 11: "Jesus is Nailed to the Cross", created by Geoffrey Holt in c. 1936. The artwork, a watercolor colored pencil and graphite on paper, showcases Holt's exceptional talent in portraying biblical scenes with remarkable detail and emotion. In this particular station, we witness Jesus Christ being crucified as Roman soldiers carry out their punishing duty. The composition draws our attention to the central figure of Jesus, who stands stoically amidst his suffering. His expression reflects both pain and resilience, capturing the essence of his sacrifice for humanity. Holt's use of color adds depth to the scene, emphasizing the gravity of this pivotal moment in Christian history. The vibrant reds symbolize bloodshed and sacrifice while contrasting with softer hues that evoke a sense of spirituality. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke; from the intricate folds in Jesus' robe to each soldier hammering nails into his hands and feet, no element goes unnoticed. Station of the Cross No. 11 transports us back to ancient Rome, allowing us to experience firsthand the anguish endured by Jesus during his crucifixion. It serves as a poignant reminder of faith and redemption for viewers across time and space. Displayed at National Gallery of Art Washington D. C. , this piece stands as a testament not only to Geoffrey Holt's artistic prowess but also its enduring relevance within American art history.
