About Artwork: (About 1520) "The subject of Christ bidding farewell to his mother, the Virgin Mary, as he heads to Jerusalem to face his arrest, trial and death was very popular in southern Germany. This is a fragment of a larger painting, which has been cut at the right edge – only Christ’s hands and part of his long crimson robe remain. The main focus of the image is the swooning Virgin Mary, who has collapsed into the arms of her companions. Huber was skilled at expressing emotion through gesture and this is probably his most expressive and dramatic image. The composition, with the holy women to the left and Christ standing to the right, is similar to a version of the scene by Albrecht Altdorfer, which is also in the National Gallery’s collection. Huber may have been inspired by Altdorfer’s painting, which was made slightly earlier." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
