About the piece
Created in 1656 by Pieter Thijs, this masterful work of the Flemish Baroque depicts Jesus on the cross in a moment of profound spiritual intensity. The composition is energized by the presence of celestial figures and a dramatic, clouded sky, utilizing high-contrast lighting to emphasize the central figure's form and emotional weight.
