Painting Description
"Christ Before Annas" is a woodcut print by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created as part of his larger series known as the "Small Passion." This series, completed around 1511, comprises 36 woodcuts that depict various scenes from the Passion of Christ, starting with the Entry into Jerusalem and concluding with the Resurrection and the Last Judgment. "Christ Before Annas" specifically represents the biblical episode where Jesus is brought before Annas, the father-in-law of the high priest Caiaphas, following his arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane.
In this woodcut, Dürer illustrates the moment with his characteristic attention to detail and his ability to convey narrative through composition and the interplay of light and shadow. The scene is set within an architectural framework that reflects the influence of Italian Renaissance art on Dürer, who had made two trips to Italy by the time he created the "Small Passion." The figures are rendered with a sense of volume and depth that was innovative for the woodcut medium at the time.
Dürer's "Christ Before Annas" is notable for its emotional intensity and the way it reflects the artist's deep engagement with religious subject matter. The woodcut is also an example of Dürer's technical mastery of the woodcut medium, which he elevated to a level of fine art through his expressive line work and intricate detail. The "Small Passion" series, including "Christ Before Annas," was widely disseminated and had a significant impact on the visual culture of the Reformation period. It remains an important work within Dürer's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance.
