"Himmelfahrt Christi," translated as "The Ascension of Christ," is a notable work by the anonymous Northern Renaissance artist known as the Master of Frankfurt. The Master of Frankfurt is believed to have been active in Antwerp around 1480 to 1520, and his true identity remains a subject of speculation, with some scholars suggesting he may be Hendrik van Wueluwe. The painting depicts the biblical event of Jesus Christ's ascension to heaven as described in the New Testament, specifically in the Acts of the Apostles (1:9-11).

The artwork is characterized by its vivid portrayal of the Apostles and the Virgin Mary, who are typically shown gazing upward as Christ ascends. The Master of Frankfurt's rendition of this scene is distinguished by its detailed figures and use of color, as well as its incorporation of Northern Renaissance artistic conventions, such as meticulous attention to landscape and the natural environment. The figures are often depicted with expressive faces, conveying a sense of wonder and awe at the miraculous event.

"Himmelfahrt Christi" is an important piece within the oeuvre of the Master of Frankfurt due to its religious significance and its reflection of the cultural and artistic milieu of the time. The painting not only serves as a devotional image but also as an example of the fusion of Gothic tradition with the emerging Renaissance style, showcasing the transition in European art during this period.

The work is typically analyzed within the context of the Master of Frankfurt's other paintings, which often feature religious themes and share similar stylistic traits. As with many of his works, "Himmelfahrt Christi" demonstrates the artist's skill in creating depth and perspective, and his ability to convey complex theological concepts through visual art.

While the exact date of creation is uncertain, "Himmelfahrt Christi" is generally dated to the late 15th or early 16th century, a time when Antwerp was a significant center of art and commerce. The painting is considered a valuable piece for understanding the spiritual and artistic aspirations of the period, as well as for appreciating the unique contributions of the Master of Frankfurt to the Northern Renaissance.
