"Christus, gestorven aan het kruis" is an etching by Jan (II) Collaert, created between 1585 and 1586. The artwork depicts the crucifixion of Jesus, with a focus on the grief of Mary and other figures present at the scene. The detail of the city in the background and the skeletal remains at the foot of the cross adds a sense of dramatic realism to the scene. This print, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the artistic style of the late Renaissance in its detailed execution and emotive portrayal of religious themes.
