Interpretation of Matthias Grunewald's

This painting was painted during the Gothic period. The medium of this painting was oil on

wood. The content of the original painting is for Matthias to show the aim of all religious art

during this time period and proclaiming the sacred truths as taught by the church. The central

panel of the painting shows that he sacrificed all other considerations to this one overriding aim.
