Jheronimus Bosch ca. 1450 – 1516 The Carrying of the Cross (Vienna)oil on panel (57 × 32 cm) — ca. 1500 Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna This work is linked to John 19:17 The two murderers have arrived on Golgotha while Jesus is on his way, pushed on by the crowd. A priest is taking confession of one the murderers - quite an anachronism. This panel was once the left panel of a triptych. The rest probably showed scenes from the Passion as well. Bosch made at least two more paintings on this subject: one is in Madrid, the other in Gent. Rate this work of art: |
