Imagine being a witness on that Passover Friday, on Calvary Hill all those years ago. We are convinced that Good Friday Art is without a doubt the most beautiful and artistic rendition of the Crucifixion of our Lord and Saviour.

Good Friday Art is for every one of all ages, everywhere. We thought it would be splendid to take the original stained glass window from St. John the Baptist, Anglican Church in Pointe Claire, Quebec, Canada and reproduce the image onto canvas for all to witness and enjoy.

Description

David Paterson created this beautiful reproduction of The Spence Window, a stained glass window which hangs inside Saint John the Baptist Anglican church, in Pointe Claire, Quebec, Canada.

Jesus, hanging from the cross, is directly in the middle of the reproduction having just released his spirit. Pay close attention to the detail of the nails which have pierced Jesus’ hands and feet. On Jesus’ head, you will notice the crown of thorns, placed on his head by the soldiers after he was flogged and tortured. To make sure that Jesus was truly dead from the torture and crucifixion, one of the Roman soldiers pierced Jesus with a sword. Below Jesus’ right chest, notice the puncture wound.

On the cross, there is a sign with four letters - INRI.
The letters "INRI" are initials for the Latin title that Pontius Pilate
gave Jesus. Latin was the official language of the Roman Empire.

The words read "Iesvs Nazarenvs Rex Ivdaeorvm." In English, this translates to: "Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews."

Mary, Jesus’ mother is standing, looking up and clasping her hands. The artwork has Mary dressed in a dark blue, with her head surrounded in a red halo. In the distant background, one will recognize the city of Jerusalem.

Mary Magdalene is featured traditionally at the foot of the cross, looking up at Jesus on the cross, having suffered his last cruelty. Mary is adorned in yellow and dark brown, with long hair and a rose coloured halo.

John, one of the twelve apostles who Jesus loved is adorned in red, hands clasped with a white halo. This apostle John was one of the only apostles that witnessed Jesus’ suffering and crucifixion.
