“…In the process, the (foreign and local) information gets repeated and modified, and this is a continuous process that moves information forward through various mediums that are bias to time or space. As Onufrijchuck says that "form lead to changes in content, and then changes in content lead to mutations of form" (quoted in Prins andBishop 2001-2002:115).…”

This essay analyzes a series of woodcuts collectively entitled the Large Passion (of Christ), which the German Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer created between 1496 and 1511. The Passion illustrates the biblical story of Jesus Christ's betrayal, trial, and crucifixion. The essay explores various artistic, religious, and philosophical contexts that affected Dürer's imagery. The artist's identification as an Augustinian Catholic, his interest in Italian humanism, and the influence of Venetian Renaissance art played crucial roles in the iconography and style of Dürer's woodcut prints. The devotional known as the Way of the Cross, or Stations of the Cross, also impacted his subject matter. The artist used his Large Passion cycle to educate a wide spectrum of art collectors about Christian doctrine. The essay concludes by briefly examining each Large Passion image, using relevant Bible passages and Christian theology to help explain some of the messages Dürer's prints conveyed.

“…3 3 There is confusion when that film was made, as Carpenter informed the first author it had been shot in 1954 (see Prins and Bishop 2002, p.114), a date picked up by the French catalog under review (p.78). The English catalog, however, changed this date to 1957 (p. 82).…”
