This etching by Grégoire Huret depicts the final moments of Christ's crucifixion, a pivotal scene in Christian iconography. The dramatic composition focuses on the physical act of nailing Christ to the cross, capturing the agony and brutality of the event. The intricate detail and expressive figures in "The Last Judgement" exemplify Huret's mastery of the Baroque style, popular in 17th-century Europe. This print, part of a larger series illustrating Christ's Passion, is now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
