Deposition from the Cross 1990

"Deposition from the Cross" (1990) is a dark and dramatic work by Ukrainian artist Oleg Holosiy, known for his expressive and often somber art. The composition focuses on a central figure, likely Christ, being lowered from the cross, with figures surrounding him. The use of white highlights against a deep, almost black background creates a stark and unsettling contrast, emphasizing the weight and sorrow of the moment. Holosiy's artwork explores themes of death, faith, and suffering, inviting viewers to contemplate the complexities of human experience.
