This etching by Christoffel van (II) Sichem, a Flemish artist active in the early 17th century, depicts the crucifixion of Christ. The scene, framed by a decorative border, includes Mary, John, and a skull, symbolizing the location of the crucifixion at Golgotha. This small-scale work demonstrates the artist's skill in rendering detail and emotion within a compact format, typical of religious art of this period.
