Christ on the Cross, c.1630 - Canvas Print

Dating back to the 17th century, "Christ on the Cross" is a simple yet evocative depiction of the human suffering of Jesus of Nazareth during the crucifixion. Blood flows freely from puncture wounds in his feet, hands, and left side. His lily-white body is clad only in a loincloth. As related in the Gospels, a sign written in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin hangs on the cross above his head. This piece would work equally well in a communal area, such as a living room, or a more private space, such as a bedroom.
