Oil, Fragment Of The Carrying Of The Cross, 19th Century
This fragment is an oil on canvas glued to metal, dating from the 19th century, probably from a larger ensemble, such as an altarpiece or a polyptych.
Our work represents a scene of the "Carrying of the Cross", a central theme of the Passion of Christ.
This iconography is very common in Renaissance painting, particularly among artists from Northern Europe.
The piece, of irregular shape, shows a young man dressed in a light gray tunic and a green loincloth, girded with a purple rope. He seems to be carrying a beam or a piece of cross on his shoulder, which evokes a religious scene, perhaps the ascent to Calvary.

The fragment is now presented on a modern black support which allows its exhibition.
