This may be
the most amazing painting I've ever seen.
The
powerful colors that Mark used and the strength in his
ability to capture the human form play a very
important role in this powerful portrayal of the
Crucifixion. This painting dominates the hall
where it currently hangs and has the ability to make
the viewer feel suspended in air.
The Crucifixion is a scene that has been
represented in word, figure and painting. To capture
such an emotional and painful scene takes many
talents. In word, your vocabulary and writing skills
must be precise. In figure, one would have to truly
be placed in that level of pain. In painting, you
have to have a master’s skill in capturing the body’s
proportion, maintain the color levels equally
throughout the medium to maintain balance and you
would have to apply the paint in a manner that
captures more than just what the colors have to
represent. Mark’s Crucifixion masters all
these in one medium. The movement and environmental
silence is captured in the lining of the figure and
the blocking of color in the background.
