EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating painting by Lucas Cranach the Elder that depicts a profound moment in Christian history. Set against the backdrop of Golgotha, also known as Calvary, this Renaissance masterpiece captures the essence of faith and loyalty. In this scene from the New Testament, we see Longinus, a Roman centurion who played a significant role in Jesus' crucifixion. His presence among the crosses symbolizes his transformation from an ordinary soldier to a devoted disciple of Christ. The painting beautifully portrays Longinus standing amidst Mary Magdalene and other mourners who are grieving over Jesus' body. Cranach's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke. The oil on wood technique brings out intricate textures and vibrant colors that enhance the emotional impact of this religious tableau.
