The Crucifixion
Ca. 1460. Mixed method on panel.Not on display
This painter from Burgos represents the transition from the international Gothic style in which he was formed to the hispano-flemish style, whose models he adapts with his personal manner. The three figures -Christ, the Virgin and Saint John- are so large that they occupy the entire foreground. Very carefully painted, it was made as an independent work. The extensive use of gold, which has been applied in large floral motifs, underscores its decorative quality. This is the original frame.
