Albrecht Dürer's powerful engraving, *Christ on the Cross*, depicts the emotional intensity of Christ's crucifixion. The central figure of Christ, rendered with meticulous detail, is surrounded by figures who exhibit a range of reactions, from grief to despair. This work exemplifies Dürer's mastery of line and his ability to convey emotion through intricate engravings. Dürer, a prominent figure in the Northern Renaissance, created this work during a period of intense religious fervor, making it a poignant testament to the power of faith.
