1435
ink
From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Christ as the Man of Sorrows is a 1435 ink by German 15th Century, a Renaissance work, depicting Corpse, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows Christ with his hands bound and a crown of thorns. It's a simple image, but the details are interesting. The colors used are limited, with red lake, yellow ochre, and green dominating the scene. The artist used these colors to create a somber mood, which fits the sad scene. You can learn more about this style by looking at the work of the artist: German 15th Century.
This 15th-century German artist carved vivid religious scenes into metal and wood, then hand-painted them in bright, symbolic colors.
