Christ, St. Paul, and the Twelve Apostles

Hendrick Goltzius

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a grid of 13 illustrations. The illustrations are arranged in three rows. The top row has four illustrations, the middle row has five, and the bottom row has four. Each illustration depicts a scene with people in robes. Some scenes show people standing, some are kneeling, and some are lying on the ground. Some illustrations include buildings in the background. The illustrations appear to be in black and white. The illustrations depict violent scenes, with some people being hit, shot, or stabbed. Some illustrations show people holding weapons, such as swords or clubs. The scenes appear to show a narrative of violence and bloodshed, with some illustrations showing bodies on the ground. The illustrations are detailed and show a range of emotions on the faces of the people depicted. The text at the bottom of each illustration is too small to read.
