This print showcases the masterpiece "Carrying of the Cross" by Abraham Hogenberg, created between 1618 and 1653. The image captures a pivotal moment in Christian history as Christ meets Veronica during his arduous journey to Golgotha. In this poignant scene, Veronica kneels before Christ, offering him her cloth to wipe his face. The composition is filled with emotion and symbolism as it depicts the selfless act of compassion from both Veronica and Simon Cyrenian, who helps carry the heavy cross alongside Jesus.
