EDITORS COMMENTS
This 15th century print, titled "The Crucifixion," is a masterpiece by the enigmatic artist known as the Master of the Borders with the Four Fathers of the Church. Created between 1460 and 1480, this antique art piece is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Germany during the late Middle Ages. The Crucifixion is a poignant depiction of the New Testament scene of Christ's crucifixion, with Jesus in the center, nailed to the cross, his body contorted in agony. Surrounding him are the Virgin Mary, St. John the Evangelist, and the two thieves, each reacting to the event in their own way. The figures are hand-coloured in yellow, red, brown lake, and green, adding depth and vibrancy to the metalcut print. The print is a significant cultural and historical artifact, showcasing the intricate details and symbolism prevalent in Christian art of the time. It is a reminder of the profound impact of the Bible and the Passion of Christ on European art and culture, and serves as an essential addition to any art center or gallery dedicated to the study of the arts and the history of Christianity. This beautiful and moving print is currently on display at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and is a must-see for anyone interested in the life of Christ, the art of the fifteenth century, or the rich artistic heritage of Europe.
