This print showcases "The Ascent to Calvary" a remarkable fresco created by Pietro Lorenzetti around 1320. Located in the San Francesco Lower Church in Assisi, Italy, this masterpiece depicts Christ carrying the cross on his way to Calvary. The painting beautifully captures the emotional intensity of this pivotal moment in Christian history. Lorenzetti's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully portrays various elements within the scene. The composition features groups of figures, including soldiers and a horseman, surrounding Jesus as he makes his arduous journey. The Virgin Mary stands at the forefront, her sorrowful expression reflecting both maternal love and anguish for her son. The architectural backdrop adds depth and context to the artwork. With its towering walls, arches, and fortifications, it transports viewers back to an early Renaissance town setting.
