'Good Friday'
Paul Delvaux painted this bizarre, macabre scene of the Crucifixion. Delvaux began his career as an artist in the 1920's working in a realist style, but he soon turned to surrealism after being particularly inspired by the work of Giorgio De Chirico. Delvaux's 'Crucifixion' is unusual even for him, as he is best known for for his female nudes placed in a surreal environment.
Paul Delvaux was also known in his lifetime as a set designer for movies and for theater and dance productions. The artist died in 1994.
