[H2]Style and Description[/H2]
This early work by Grünewald showcases his unique style, which combines elements of Italian High Renaissance with his own personal expressionism. The painting depicts Christ blindfolded and being beaten by a group of grotesque men, with the figures thick-bodied, soft, and fleshy.
The use of light and color in this painting is particularly striking, with Grünewald's ability to create dazzling effects that add to the emotional impact of the scene. The figures are arranged in a dynamic composition that draws the viewer's eye towards Christ, who sits blindfolded on a low stone wall with his hands and arms bound by a rope.
