"The Crucifixion" is a 1511 engraving by German artist Albrecht Dürer. The detailed and expressive artwork depicts the crucifixion of Christ with figures grouped around the cross. The composition showcases Dürer's signature use of linear perspective and meticulous detail, as seen in the intricate folds of drapery and the anatomical accuracy of the figures. This print, now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is considered a masterpiece of Renaissance art and a powerful representation of the suffering of Christ.
