A black and white close up of the crucified Christ, thorns on His head. Maybe the most stunning artwork I've ever seen of this scene.
His mouth is open but relaxed, his eyes are closed, there's a beatific expression on his face, the body is soft fuzzed, melts into black.
Behind Christ you can see just part of the cross, and there's a halo that arcs way out. If you continued the circle it'd cross His neck.
The only marking is D-57.
