"Crowded Calvary" is a drawing by the German Renaissance artist Hans Schäufelein. The drawing depicts a scene of the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ, with three crosses, two of which are occupied by thieves. It is a testament to the artist's skill in depicting a multitude of figures in a dynamic composition with a focus on minute detail. The drawing's focus on the physicality of the event and its dramatic portrayal of human suffering makes it a powerful example of Northern Renaissance religious art. It is housed in the Städel Museum in Frankfurt, Germany.
