The Gift
Relief sculpture of Christ on the cross. Understandably, any depiction of the Crucifixion of Jesus Christ, Lord and Redeemer, is inherently violent. In this piece however, the attention is not on the clenching suffering and blood of that single greatest act of sacrifice. Here we see that the very heart of His work, the gift of Atonement, is love. I was very touched by the lack of violence in the original work of late Renaissance artist, Giambologna. After Giambologna, 1573.
