Painting Description
"The Capture of Christ" is a woodcut by the German artist Albrecht Dürer, created as part of his series known as "The Little Passion." This series, completed around 1511, comprises 36 small woodcuts depicting various scenes from the Passion of Christ. "The Capture of Christ" specifically illustrates the moment in the New Testament when Jesus is arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane, a pivotal event in Christian theology.
Dürer's work is renowned for its intricate detail and emotional intensity, qualities that are evident in this piece. The composition captures the chaos and tumult of the arrest, with figures depicted in dynamic poses and expressions of fear and betrayal clearly visible. Judas Iscariot, who betrays Jesus to the authorities, is typically shown in the act of kissing Jesus, a signal to the arresting soldiers of Jesus' identity.
This woodcut, like others in the series, measures approximately 128 x 98 mm and showcases Dürer's mastery of the woodcut medium. His ability to convey complex narrative and emotion in such a compact format is a testament to his skill and innovative approach to art. "The Little Passion" is considered one of Dürer's major achievements and reflects both his deep religious faith and his artistic ingenuity. "The Capture of Christ" remains a significant work for its portrayal of a key biblical event and its influence on the visual arts, particularly in the context of the Northern Renaissance.
