About the piece
Painted by Antonio Palomino around 1750, this oil on canvas captures the solemnity of Calvary. The composition utilizes a dramatic play of light and shadow, highlighting the suffering figure of Christ while the Virgin Mary and Saint John look on with expressive grief. It is a masterful example of late Spanish Baroque religious art from the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts of Córdoba.
