The Bible in Pictures - Crucifixion
Luke 23:33 - And when they were come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.
This is the left panel of Bertram's Passion altar-piece, the triptych he made for St. Johns in Hamburg. It is one of few works that depict the actual nailing to the cross.
The center panel shows the coronation of Mary. The outer panels show this Crucifixion, Jesus before Pilate, Mary and John under the Cross, and the Entry into Jerusalem.>>>> Altarpiece
