The Disrobing of Christ, c. 1785-1790. Creator: Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo (Italian, 1727-1804)
The Disrobing of Christ, c. 1785-1790. Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo, an important Venetian fresco painter of the 18th century, is best known today for his highly finished historical drawings that ingeniously incorporate details from daily life. This drawing, from a suite of more than 260 sheets known as the Large Biblical Series, depicts the Disrobing of Christ (the tenth Station of the Cross). The moment of the Crucifixion is close at hand as a Roman solider waits by the cross, hammer at the ready. By juxtaposing the figure of Christ, bathed in celestial light, with that of the executioner kneeling before his victim, Tiepolo introduced an element of tragic irony while emphasizing the impact of Christs presence and the religious significance of his death
