"Christ Crowned with Thorns" (b. 13; L., Holl. 23) is a significant engraving by the renowned German artist Martin Schongauer, who was active during the late 15th century. Schongauer, born around 1448 and passing in 1491, is celebrated for his exceptional skill in engraving, a technique that involves incising a design onto a hard surface, typically metal, to create prints. This particular work exemplifies his mastery in the medium and his ability to convey intense emotion and intricate detail.

The engraving depicts the poignant moment of Christ's Passion, where he is crowned with thorns, a scene that holds deep religious significance in Christian iconography. Schongauer's interpretation is notable for its dramatic composition and the meticulous attention to detail. The artist's use of line work to create texture and depth is evident in the rendering of Christ's suffering face and the surrounding figures who mock and torment him. The expressions and gestures of the figures are captured with a high degree of realism, showcasing Schongauer's keen observational skills and his ability to convey complex human emotions.

"Christ Crowned with Thorns" is part of a larger body of work by Schongauer that had a profound influence on subsequent generations of artists, including Albrecht Dürer, who admired and was inspired by Schongauer's engravings. The piece is often studied for its technical prowess and its contribution to the development of printmaking as a respected art form during the Renaissance.

The engraving is cataloged as b. 13 in Bartsch's comprehensive catalog of old master prints and as L., Holl. 23 in other notable references, indicating its recognition and documentation in art historical literature. Today, Schongauer's engravings, including "Christ Crowned with Thorns," are held in high esteem and can be found in major museum collections around the world, where they continue to be appreciated for their artistic and historical significance.
