EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Caravaggio's masterpiece, "The Taking of Christ". Painted in oil on canvas, this iconic artwork depicts the dramatic arrest of Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane. The intense emotions and raw human interactions are beautifully captured by Michelangelo Caravaggio, or a follower of his style. Measuring 122x157.5 cm, this painting is currently held in a private collection but can be admired at eLawrence Steigrad Fine Arts in New York. The Italian artist's work has transcended time and remains out of copyright, allowing art enthusiasts to appreciate its beauty freely. In this scene, we witness the moment when Judas Iscariot betrays Jesus with a kiss while Roman soldiers seize him. The passion and turmoil are palpable as disciples react to their beloved leader being taken away unjustly. Caravaggio masterfully portrays the contrasting emotions through light and shadow play that he was renowned for. "The Taking of Christ" is an arresting portrayal that delves into themes of betrayal, loyalty, and sacrifice. It serves as a poignant reminder of the profound impact one person can have on history and faith. Bridgeman Images has skillfully captured this powerful painting in photographic form for all to admire without commercial use intentions. This print allows viewers to bring home a piece of art history that continues to inspire awe centuries after its creation.
