Crucifixion at Golgotha
“Outside Jerusalem walls, c. 33 CE. Three crosses stand on a wind-bitten hill of skulls as a storm gathers. Foreground shows Roman soldiers dicing for a seamless robe and Mary Magdalene kneeling in the dust; midground reveals women weeping and a centurion looking up; the city's white-and-gold Temple complex is visible across the Kidron under bruised sky.”
