Juan Rodríguez Juárez, 1702 - The Entombment of Christ - fine art print

Original information about the artwork from The Metropolitan Museum of Art (© - The Metropolitan Museum of Art - The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

Juan Rodríguez Juárez was a versatile artist who excelled as a painter of altarpieces as well as portraits and small devotional works such as the Entombment of Christ. This work displays the brilliant color and vigorous modeling characteristic of the earliest phase of his career. The composition derives from a Flemish print, but the painter has altered it to heighten the impact of Christ’s seminude body, which is presented as the focus of prayer and meditation. The artist’s signature, conspicuously inscribed on the tomb, also signals his devotion.

The Entombment of Christ is an artpiece created by the Mexican painter Juan Rodríguez Juárez. The original has the dimensions: 10 3/16 × 7 3/4 in (25,9 × 19,7 cm) Framed: 17 3/4 × 15 3/4 × 1 1/2 in (45,1 × 40 × 3,8 cm). Oil and gold on copper was applied by the North American artist as the technique for the artpiece. Nowadays, this artpiece is part of the digital collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, which is one of the world's largest and finest art museums, which includes more than two million works of art spanning five thousand years of world culture, from prehistory to the present and from every part of the globe..

What kind of fine art print materials can I pick?

For every art print we offer different sizes and materials. Therefore, we allow you to choose among the following options:

• Poster print (canvas material): A poster print is a printed canvas paper with a nice surface structure. Please note, that depending on the size of the poster we add a white margin 2-6cm round about the print to facilitate the framing with your custom frame.
• Acrylic glass print: The acrylic glass print, often labelled as a print on plexiglass, will change the artwork into beautiful home decoration. What is more, it forms a great alternative to dibond and canvas art prints. The work of art is made with the help of modern UV direct print machines. This creates intense and sharp color tones.
• Canvas print: A printed canvas, not to be mistaken with a painting on a canvas, is a digital replica applied directly on cotton canvas material. Hanging a canvas print: Canvas prints are relatively low in weight. That means, it is easy to hang up your Canvas print without additional wall-mounts. A canvas print is suitable for all kinds of walls.
• Metal print (aluminium dibond): An Aluminium Dibond print is a print material with a true depth effect. For the Aluminium Dibond print, we print your artpiece onto the aluminium surface.
