Description: | Signed: yes Description: Little is known about the artist of this painting, J. H. Mols, who has signed the back of the canvas and written the address of his studio in Antwerp. He was probably a relative, perhaps even a brother, of the more famous painter Robert Charles Mols. Robert's father, Florent, practised in Antwerp and J. H. Mols may well have trained in Florent's studio. Mols specialised in making fine copies of the famous paintings found in the city. This work and its pendant are copies from Rubens' scenes from Christ's crucifixion found in Antwerp Cathedral. | Subjects: | religion (Descent from the Cross); figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Mols, J.
