From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Christ and the Apostles: St. Judas Thaddeus (with the Club) is a 1604 by Ludolph Büsinck, a Baroque work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting depicts a man with curly hair and a beard, wearing a robe. He is holding a club in his right hand, and his left hand rests on a table or ledge. The man's gaze is directed downward, and his facial expression is somber. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume in the figure, with strong contrasts between light and dark. The overall mood of the painting is one of contemplation and introspection. To learn more about the artistic style and techniques used in this painting, explore the Baroque movement.
