Painting Description
"The Passion (detail 9) 1524-25" is a notable work by the German artist Hans Holbein the Younger, a leading figure of the Northern Renaissance known for his precise and detailed portraiture as well as his religious compositions. Created between 1524 and 1525, this piece is part of a larger series of works that depict scenes from the Passion of Christ, a subject that has been a central theme in Christian art. Holbein's series on the Passion is recognized for its emotional intensity and its vivid portrayal of the events leading up to the crucifixion of Jesus.
This particular detail, the ninth in the series, is believed to illustrate a specific moment from the biblical narrative, although the exact scene it represents is not universally agreed upon due to the fragmentary nature of the surviving works. Holbein's approach to religious art was characterized by a combination of Gothic tradition and the emerging Renaissance emphasis on realism and humanism. His treatment of biblical scenes was often marked by a focus on the human experience of the divine, with an attention to the psychological states of the figures depicted.
The series to which "The Passion (detail 9)" belongs showcases Holbein's skill in composition, his mastery of line, and his nuanced use of color. The works were likely intended for private devotion, as was common for Passion cycles during this period. They would have served to inspire reflection and meditation on the suffering and sacrifice of Christ.
Unfortunately, many of Holbein's religious works, including parts of the Passion series, were lost or destroyed during the Reformation, which saw a widespread iconoclasm, particularly in regions influenced by Protestantism. As a result, the remaining pieces, including "The Passion (detail 9)," are especially valuable for the insight they provide into Holbein's oeuvre and the religious sensibilities of the time.
Today, "The Passion (detail 9)" is appreciated not only as a work of religious significance but also as an example of Holbein's artistic legacy. It is studied for its technical brilliance and its place within the broader context of Northern Renaissance art. The work is housed in a collection that allows art historians and the public to engage with Holbein's interpretation of one of the most powerful narratives in Western art history.
