Passover, medieval art, the Passion of ChristAbstract
Studies on medieval images of the life of Jesus Christ have so far focused either on the narrative perspective of the Christological cycle, presenting in a holistic and synthetic way the life and work of the Saviour, or isolated the Passion cycle revealing the suffering and death of Christ. However, in the Middle Ages there was a clear trend which focused on the events of last days of his life and events following his death. Such events are referred to as the Passover of Christ or the Paschal Mystery. This study is aimed not only to indicate sample presentations of the Passover but also attempts to interpret them.
