Crucifixion Gerard David Magdalene Saint John
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness Gerard David's masterpiece, "Crucifixion with the Virgin, Saint John, and the Magdalene". Painted around 1485, this oil on panel artwork measures an impressive 25 7/8 x 16 5/8 inches (65.7 x 42.2 cm), showcasing David's meticulous attention to detail. The scene depicted is both poignant and powerful. At the center of the composition hangs Jesus Christ upon a cross, his body contorted in agony. Surrounding him are three figures that bring depth and emotion to the painting: The Virgin Mary stands at his right side, her face etched with grief; Saint John kneels at his left side, his hands clasped in prayer; and Mary Magdalene leans forward in sorrowful contemplation. David's skillful use of light and shadow adds a dramatic quality to the piece. The soft glow illuminates each figure individually while creating a sense of unity within their shared anguish. Every brushstroke reveals intricate textures – from flowing robes to delicate facial expressions – further enhancing our connection with these biblical characters. This print allows us to appreciate Gerard David's mastery as he captures not only the physical suffering but also conveys profound spiritual meaning through his subjects' expressions and gestures. It serves as a timeless reminder of faith, sacrifice, and redemption that continues to resonate with viewers today.
