Albrecht Dürer’s *Bloed van Christus aan het kruis wordt opgevangen in bekers door drie engelen*, a wood-cut print created in 1513, depicts the blood of Christ being collected in chalices by three angels during the crucifixion. The detailed, realistic depiction of Christ and the angels reflects Dürer’s mastery of the medium, and this image is considered one of the masterworks of Northern Renaissance art. The image is a powerful representation of the suffering and sacrifice of Christ, while also showcasing Dürer’s technical prowess and artistic ingenuity.
