Crucifixion (round) 1517 - 1520

Albrecht Dürer’s "Crucifixion (round)" is a small, intricate engraving, created between 1517 and 1520. The round composition depicts Jesus Christ on the cross, flanked by figures of Mary and John. This piece reflects Dürer's mastery of detail and his keen interest in the human form, contributing to his reputation as one of the leading artists of the Northern Renaissance. The engraving is now housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
