EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a powerful woodcut titled "A Roman soldier mocking Christ" from the series The Great Passion, published in 1511. Created by the renowned artist Albrecht Durer (1471-1528), this piece is an exquisite example of Renaissance artistry. The image depicts a scene where a Roman soldier kneels before Christ, cruelly mocking him with a crown of thorns. Above them, the artist's name is elegantly inscribed in Latin, adding to the overall aesthetic appeal. Below this haunting portrayal lies a poignant poem berating mankind for their sins, emphasizing the profound message conveyed through this artwork. Measuring 27.9x38.1 cm, this large woodcut demands attention and invites viewers to contemplate its meaning. It captures the essence of Christ's suffering and serves as a reminder of humanity's flaws and need for redemption. Beyond its religious significance, this print also incorporates other elements such as an elephant and dwarf figures that add intrigue to the composition. These additional details contribute to creating a rich visual narrative that captivates both art enthusiasts and historians alike. With its exceptional craftsmanship and thought-provoking subject matter, this woodcut exemplifies Durer's mastery as an artist during his time. This particular print is part of a private collection but can be appreciated by all who encounter it through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform.
