"Crucifixion, Oil On Panel, 17th Century, Louis XIII Period Frame."
Crucifixion, oil on panel, Christ stretched out, his body very pale. The Virgin of Sorrows at his feet. A city, rendered in great detail in the background. Plants and rocks. This crucifixion is not "doloristic." It emanates a certain serenity, a kind of calm. Silence reigns. The colors of the Virgin's garments are vibrant. Very luminous sky. Beautiful carved wooden frame, probably gilded, 17th century. France or Italy?
