The Blood of the Redeemer

Hieronymus Wierix

Black and white image of Jesus on the cross with a halo over his head. He is standing in a chalice. His arms are outstretched. His right hand and left hand are both palm up. He is nude, with a cloth covering his lower body. The cross is above him with 'I.N.R.I' on it. There are clouds on both sides. A few dice are depicted near the bottom of the image. The background is shaded with lines. A block of text in a foreign language is at the bottom. There are cherubs in the upper corners. A block of text outside the image reads: The Blood of the Redeemer by Hieronymus Wierix.
