From the collection of Statens Museum for Kunst
Kristus på korset is a 1750 unspecified by Unknown, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a man nailed to a cross, arms spread wide. Around him, six people react—some kneel, one weeps, two men stand with hands raised as if in shock. The background is plain, focusing all attention on the central figure and the crowd’s reactions. The cross has a sign above his head, though the letters are hard to read. The figures wear simple robes, and one woman clutches a small pot on the ground. Look up watercolor to see how artists use thin layers of paint to build depth.
