Cross Descent Unmarked Werkstatt Workshop Oakwood Rogier Van Der Weyden

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artwork titled "Descent Cross" from the 16th century. Painted with oil on oakwood, this masterpiece measures 40 x 33 cm and remains unmarked, leaving its origins open to interpretation. The crosstitulus inscription of "i n r i" adds an intriguing religious element to the composition. Attributed to Marcellus Coffermans' workshop, which operated between 1530 and 1578, this piece is believed to be a copy after Rogier van der Weyden's original creation. Van der Weyden himself was a renowned Flemish painter born in Tournai around 1399 or 1400 and passed away in Brussels in 1464. The image captures the profound moment of Christ's descent from the cross, evoking strong emotions through its meticulous brushwork and attention to detail. The play of light and shadows enhances the dramatic atmosphere surrounding this pivotal event in Christian history. While information about its provenance may remain elusive, this print allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate the beauty and significance of this historical artwork. Whether displayed as part of a private collection or exhibited publicly, it serves as a testament to both the skillful craftsmanship of Coffermans' workshop and Van der Weyden's influential artistic legacy.
