Flagelarea Mântuitorului is an unspecified by Johann Rottenhammer, a Byzantine icon painting work, depicting Christ Carrying the Cross, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This painting shows Christ tied to a column, whipped before his crucifixion. The ropes dig into his skin. Blood drips in thin red lines along his ribs and thighs. Johann Rottenhammer painted this in tiny, careful strokes. His small brush made every muscle and shadow look real. The light hits Christ’s back in bright patches, leaving dark corners unlit. See how the artist contrasts pain and calm. Look up Rottenhammer, Johann.
This German artist painted small, finely wrought religious scenes on copper panels in the late 1500s.
