Gekruisigde op rots 1901

"Gekruisigde op rots" (Crucified on a Rock) is a 1901 drawing by Dutch artist Simon Moulijn. The drawing depicts a solitary figure crucified on a cross atop a rocky hill. Moulijn's use of soft, delicate lines and shading create a sense of somberness and isolation, emphasizing the figure's suffering. The distant landscape, characterized by a hazy sky and scattered trees, adds to the atmosphere of contemplation and solitude. This small-scale work, housed in the Rijksmuseum, invites viewers to reflect on the themes of sacrifice and faith.
