Scenes from the Passion of Christ, This image shows the right side panels of a two-tier altarpiece depicting scenes of Christ's Passion. In the top tier (L-R) is the scene of Christ before Caiaphas. In the lower tier are the depictions of Christ's deposition from the cross, Christ's resurrection, and Christ's ascension. In the scene of the garden of Gethsemane, Christ kneels in prayer beside a rock on which a cup/chalice rests, referring to Luke 22:42. In the foreground and background, huddled apostles sit and weep, rest, and pray. In the second scene is the betrayal of Christ by Judas. Here, a large crowd is gathered, and Judas kisses Jesus on the cheek to identify him to the guards and authorities. In the foreground, an apostle smites a Roman servant (of the high priest). In the background, guards carry weapons and banners and shields (inscribed SPQR). In the last scene of the top tier, Christ stands before Caiaphus, who sits in judgement. In the lower tier, depicted is Christ's deposition from the cross. Christ's body is lowered from the cross, while Mary reaches up to receive him in her arms. In the next scene of the lower tier is Christ's resurrection. Here, Christ stands victorious on top of his tomb, holds a banner, and gives the sign of blessing. Around the tomb, the Roman guards sleep. In the last scene of the lower tier, Christ ascends into Heaven. Here, two angels hover on either side of Christ's feet and hold inscribed scrolls. Below, the apostles and Mary kneel with hands clasped and heads raised to watch Christ. In the spandrels are St. Paul, a bishop saint, St. Mark, and a warrior saint., 1435-1450
