Description: | This painting is based on a prototype, or on prototypes, by Rubens, which were themselves based on a crucifixion painted in Cologne by a Flemish refugee in that city, called Goltzius Geldorp. The engraver P. Pontius made a print of the painting by Rubens in 1631, and it is from this that the de Wit painting is believed to be taken. There is a very similar composition known to be by de Wit, of 1719, in the Church of Moses and Aaron, in Amsterdam | Subjects: | religion (Christ on the Cross); figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Wit, Jacob de (Dutch painter, 1695-1754) Æ Attributed to After Rubens, Peter Paul (Flemish painter and draftsman, 1577-1640) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8678... | Go to resource |
