"Small Passion 12. Christ before Annas" is a notable woodcut by the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer, created as part of his "Small Passion" series around 1509-1511. This series, comprising 37 woodcuts, is one of Dürer's most significant contributions to the art of woodcut printing, showcasing his mastery over the medium and his deep engagement with religious themes. "Christ before Annas" specifically depicts the moment from the Passion of Christ when Jesus is brought before Annas, the father-in-law of the high priest Caiaphas, following his arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane. This scene is a critical episode in the Passion narrative, leading to the trial of Jesus.

In this woodcut, Dürer's intricate detailing and command of light and shadow are evident, as he captures the tension and drama of the biblical story. The composition is carefully structured to guide the viewer's attention towards the central figures of Christ and Annas, using the architectural elements and the positioning of the other figures to frame this pivotal encounter. Dürer's work is not only a testament to his artistic skill but also reflects the religious and cultural milieu of early 16th-century Europe, where the Passion narrative was a central theme in art and devotion.

"Small Passion 12. Christ before Annas" is valued not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its historical significance as part of the larger "Small Passion" series, which was widely disseminated and influential in spreading Dürer's fame across Europe. The series as a whole, and this woodcut in particular, exemplify the artist's innovative approach to woodcut design, his ability to convey complex narratives in a single image, and his profound influence on the development of the Northern Renaissance art.
