Religion: 'The Road to Calvary'—an ink engraving depicting Jesus Christ carrying his cross by Martin Schongauer in c.1480.
Faltering under the weight of the cross, Jesus Christ falters and falls on the road to Golgotha where he is to be crucified. A Roman guard drags him while another whips him. The Virgin Mary is being comforted behind the chaotic crowd. Two naked prisoners who will face crucifixion alongside Christ walk ahead, their hands tied behind their backs. In the background stands Jerusalem.
