A visceral, raw, and highly texturally detailed conceptual artwork. In the center, three crude wooden crosses are silhouetted against a dark, stormy, indigo sky. The central figure, Christ, is "numbered" among two criminals, but his face is bathed in a faint, unseen celestial glow that the others lack. A massive, heavy, shadowy cloak, made of thousands of tiny, interwoven dark figures and faces (representing "the sin of many"), is visibly draped over his shoulders, weighing him down. Below the crosses, the stormy sky is breaking, revealing a sliver of intense golden dawn, hinting at the "portion with the great" yet to come. Symbolic, poignant, high contrast.“Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.” (Isaiah 53:12, KJV)
