EDITORS COMMENTS
The Vyssi Brod Crucifixion, before 1400 (1955) is a powerful and haunting depiction of the biblical scene by the Master of the Vyssi Brod Altar. This print, found in the collection of The National Gallery in Prague, captures the essence of Gothic painting in Bohemia during the 14th century. The image portrays Jesus Christ on the cross, surrounded by a multitude of grief-stricken figures. The artist skillfully conveys their pain, sadness, and sorrow through vivid colors and intricate details. The crucified figure is depicted with great realism, evoking a sense of sacrifice and suffering. In this medieval artwork, we see both men and women mourning at the foot of the cross. A haloed angel hovers above them as a symbol of divine presence amidst human anguish. A skull at Christ's feet serves as a reminder of mortality. The composition showcases not only religious devotion but also artistic mastery. The delicate brushstrokes and attention to detail create an atmosphere that transports viewers back to this pivotal moment in Christian history. This print from 'Gothic Painting in Bohemia 1350-1450' by Antonin Matejcek and Jaroslav Pesina allows us to appreciate both the beauty and emotional depth inherent in religious art from this period.
