About this work

This painting shows a man nailed to a cross in the center, with two angels kneeling below. Bright flowers with big yellow centers and red leaves fill the edges. The sky is a flat blue, and the ground has a simple brown line. The word "AMIN" is written on the cross. The flowers look like they’re holding up the scene, almost like a frame. Look up festoon next to see how decorations like these were used in older art.
