 Beckmann: The Descent from the Cross
"This Descent and the preceding work, Christ and the Woman Taken in Adultery, are companion pieces of almost identical size.
It is no coincidence that this motif appears in Beckmann's art around 1917; he felt a strong inclination toward the "manly mysticism" of Northern Early Renaissance masters, and his new style was deeply influenced by their sparse, dour, hard-edged realism.
And the imperative to "be a child of your times" led on to new and terribly exciting works-terribly exciting in the true sense of the words."

The Southern Cross Group receives many queries from Australians overseas who are about to become parents for the first time, or who have recently become parents.

 "THE DESCENT FROM THE CROSS"
The Descent from the Cross depicts other secondary characters who attend the event, such as the anachronistic figure of a Roman soldier and the anecdotal presence of a child affected with mumps or an abscess.
The main characters are assembled around the cross and form a diagonal line crossing the panel from left to right; the others form two groups at both sides of them, between the right foreground and the left background.
The atmosphere is full of mystery and has a nocturnal character that is already a mannerist contribution.
