This print showcases a high relief sculpture that depicts various scenes from the extraordinary life of Jesus Christ and some episodes of his martyrdom. Preserved in the esteemed Muse du Moyen-Age de Cluny in Paris, France, this artwork is a testament to the rich history and artistic brilliance of the Middle Ages. The intricate details of this Gothic masterpiece transport viewers back to Europe during the first and second millennium A. D.

From the iconic crucifixion scene to the poignant Last Supper, this high relief captures pivotal moments from Christ's journey on Earth. It serves as a visual narrative of his passion, illustrating both his divine nature and human vulnerability. As we delve deeper into this photograph, we are transported further into history.
