“XIIIe Station. Jésus est remis entre les mains de sa mère. Cet autel est construit sur le rocher où se tenait la vierge marie pendant le crucifiement de son fils.”, an 1860 photograph by Louis de Clercq, depicts a detailed drawing of a religious altar. The altar is intricately decorated with ornate details, including a central niche with a depiction of the Virgin Mary. The text below the drawing explains that the altar was built on the site where the Virgin Mary stood during the crucifixion of Jesus. This piece is part of a larger series of photographs documenting the Stations of the Cross, a series of devotional images representing key events in the Passion of Christ. The artwork is a fine example of photographic documentation of religious art and architecture.
