The Calvary

Daniel Hopfer

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white illustration of a chaotic scene. Three men are crucified on crosses, with the central figure being a nude male with curly hair, while the other two are on either side. The central figure has an angel below his cross. A crowd of people surrounds them, some holding weapons such as spears, swords, and shields. The crowd includes both men and women. A woman sits on the bottom left, holding a skull. The background includes a cloudy sky with some architectural elements visible. The image is framed by a white border.
