Распятие с предстоящими {1860} Crucifixion with attendants
история:
This canvas was painted as an altarpiece, probably for a Catholic "hidden church".
Until recently it was mistakenly assumed that ter Brugghen was Catholic, not Protestant, in part because he responded so sympathetically to commissions such as this one.
It appears likely that the museum's painting was made to replace an earlier altarpiece that had been damaged or destroyed.

Hendrick ter Brugghen, Dutch painter.
Ter Brugghen's realistic figures and handling of light made him one of the leading figures of the Caravaggesque movement in Utrecht.
However, his sense of color and rhythmic lines are among the hallmarks of a distinctive personal style.

Распятие с Богородицей и св. Иоанном
The strikingly archaic qualities of the picture, such as the angular figure of Christ, the shallow space, and the starry sky, have reminded many viewers of late-Medieval woodcuts, prints by Durer, and Isenheim altarpiece {1492}.
