Four Scenes from the Life of Christ before 1870

"Four Scenes from the Life of Christ" is a small grisaille drawing by French artist Georges Hurtrel (1807-1930). This work depicts four scenes from the Passion of Christ, with a focus on his entry into Jerusalem, the Last Supper, and his betrayal by Judas. Executed in a monochrome style, it evokes a sense of solemnity and reverence, typical of religious art of the period. The drawing's compact dimensions further enhance its intimacy and devotion, making it a powerful reminder of the importance of Christ's sacrifice.
