Passio, mors, et ressvrrectio dn. nostri Iesv Christi : iconobus artificiosissimis
A Latin devotional print series on the Passion of Christ, published in Antwerp in 1571 by Philippe Galle after designs by Jan van der Straet, with engravings by Adriaen Collaert. Each plate is a crowded engraved narrative scene with a Latin caption pair printed beneath, aimed at devout viewers and artists. Designers can take its dense crowd compositions, layered architecture receding behind figures, and dramatic torchlit interiors as models for staging multi-figure narrative scenes with strong tonal contrast.
