About the painting

In the museum's own words — in Russian

В иконе "Распятие" представлен один из вариантов евангельского рассказа. Традиционно в центре композиции на фоне иерусалимской стены изображен Христос, распятый на семиконечном кресте, который водружен на вершине горы Голгофы. В ее недрах, в черной пещере, виден череп Адама. По сторонам креста: слева - Богоматерь и св. Мария Магдалина, справа - св. Иоанн Богослов и сотник Лонгин. Над средней перекладиной креста - два плачущих ангела. Создание иконы в одной из мастерских на Русском Севере во второй половине XVI в. подтверждается ее композицией, уравновешенным распределением цветовых пятен, манерой исполнения.
