Christ, Egg tempera and 24 carat gold on 1" solid wood panel, 36" x 24" By the hand of MF Dondelinger. Sold
This is one of my favorite images of Christ. Could it be the blue only achieved with the stone lapis lazuli (ground into pigment) which colors his robe? Or is it the calm and confident features on his face? Probably all of it together pushes this interpretation of Christ into the forefront of beautiful images in iconography.
