{"product_id":"christus-voor-annas-doen-pietersz","title":"Christus voor Annas - Doen Pietersz.","description":"\u003cp\u003eA hand-coloured woodcut from the early sixteenth century depicting the biblical encounter between Christ and Annas, produced by the Dutch printer Doen Pietersz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hand-coloured woodcut by the Dutch printer and publisher Doen Pietersz. depicts the biblical scene of Christ before Annas. The composition is typical of early sixteenth-century book illustration, where narrative clarity takes precedence over spatial depth. The figures are arranged in a compressed, stage-like setting, with Annas positioned centrally to receive the bound Christ. The soldiers surrounding the central figures are rendered with specific attention to their contemporary armour and attire, a common practice in Northern Renaissance art to make historical narratives accessible to the viewer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe woodcut technique is evident in the bold, decisive outlines that define the forms. The application of colour, likely added by hand after the initial printing, uses a limited palette to distinguish the figures from the architectural background. The brickwork and arched doorway provide a rudimentary sense of place, while the figures occupy the foreground with a sense of immediate action. The work reflects the production methods of early Dutch printing houses, where small-format religious texts were produced for a wider audience. The inclusion of the artist's mark at the bottom right corner confirms the provenance of this specific block within the broader context of Pietersz.'s output. This print offers a glimpse into the visual culture of the period, where the combination of graphic line work and applied colour served to animate religious stories for devotional reading. The physical presence of the paper, with its visible texture and the surrounding margins of the original volume, adds a tactile quality to the piece, grounding it in its history as a functional book illustration rather than a standalone gallery work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/nadab-and-abihu-consumed-by-fire-veit-rudolf-specklin\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eNadab and Abihu Consumed by Fire - Veit Rudolf Specklin — Veit Rudolf Specklin\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/the-destruction-of-sodom-reverse-of-madonna-and-child-albrecht-durer\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eThe Destruction of Sodom (Reverse of Madonna and Child) - Albrecht Dürer — Albrecht Dürer\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Doen Pietersz.","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58596611064143,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58596621943119,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58596621975887,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58596622008655,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58596622041423,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58596622074191,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58596622106959,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58596622139727,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58596622172495,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58596622205263,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58596622238031,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58596622270799,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Christus-voor-Annas_Poster_CompositorV1_1787979626473.jpg?v=1787980639","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/christus-voor-annas-doen-pietersz","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
