The Ascension of Christ original: "Ascensio Christi"

A woodcut illustration depicts the Ascension of Jesus Christ. In the upper center, Christ is shown ascending into heaven, standing upon a bank of clouds. He has long hair and a beard, wearing a draped cloak. His right hand is raised in a gesture of blessing, while his left hand holds a tall staff topped with a cross and a banner. He is surrounded by swirling clouds containing the faces of several small cherubs. In the lower half of the image, the Apostles are gathered on the ground, shown from behind and in profile as they kneel and look upward in awe at the ascending figure. The woodcut is characterized by dense linework and cross-hatching to create texture and depth.
