Single Leaf from a Missal: The Crucifixion

The image depicts a crucifixion scene. Jesus Christ hangs on a cross at the center with outstretched arms. He has a halo around his head and is grayish in color. His loincloth is white. Three angels are positioned above, collecting blood from his wounds in chalices. The angels wear colorful robes and halos. The angel on the left wears green, the one on the right wears blue, and the one at the top wears red and blue. Below Jesus, a man in a red robe and a halo stands on a brown ground. The man holds a chalice to catch Jesus' blood. On either side of the crucifixion scene, two figures stand. The figure on the left is a woman wearing a blue robe and a halo. The figure on the right is a man wearing a blue garment and a cream-colored robe. The background features intricate gold designs on a black base. The border around the image is red and beige. The artist's signature appears at the bottom. The top of the image shows text.
