Kristus tages til fange 1480 - 1500

"Kristus tages til fange" is an anonymous woodcut from the late 15th century, now in the collection of the Statens Museum for Kunst (SMK). The artwork depicts the arrest of Jesus Christ by a group of soldiers, creating a sense of drama and tension. The scene is dominated by the central figure of Christ, with the surrounding figures conveying the chaos and violence of the event. This work demonstrates the artist's skill in capturing the energy and detail of a biblical story through the use of powerful lines and contrasts.
