Painting Description
"Betrayal of Christ" is a notable woodcut by the German artist Albrecht Dürer, created as part of his larger work, the "Small Passion" series, which he completed around 1510. This series consists of 37 woodcuts depicting various scenes from the Passion of Christ, from the Last Supper to the Resurrection. The "Betrayal of Christ" specifically illustrates the moment of Jesus Christ's arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane, an event described in all four canonical Gospels of the New Testament.
In Dürer's representation, the scene is charged with dynamic tension and emotional intensity. Judas Iscariot is typically shown identifying Jesus to the soldiers by giving him a kiss, an act that has become synonymous with betrayal. Dürer's mastery of the woodcut medium is evident in the intricate details and the expressive lines that convey the chaos and confusion of the moment. The figures are rendered with a dramatic sense of movement and interaction, which was characteristic of Dürer's work and reflective of the evolving Renaissance style in Northern Europe.
Albrecht Dürer (1471–1528) was a leading figure of the Northern Renaissance, celebrated for his paintings, prints, and theoretical writings on art. His works are distinguished by their remarkable detail, technical skill, and innovative approach to composition and subject matter. The "Betrayal of Christ" stands as a testament to Dürer's ability to infuse traditional religious themes with a new level of emotional depth and narrative complexity.
The "Small Passion" woodcuts, including the "Betrayal of Christ," were widely disseminated and influential, contributing to Dürer's reputation as one of the foremost printmakers of his time. Today, these works are held in high esteem and can be found in various museum collections around the world, where they continue to be studied and admired for their artistic and historical significance.
