Crucifixion, Altarpiece, Old Cathedral, Coimbra, Portugal
Detail of the crucifixion, from the main altarpiece in the main chapel, in the Old Cathedral of Coimbra, or Se Velha de Coimbra, a 12th century Romanesque Roman Catholic cathedral in Coimbra, Portugal. The altarpiece, 1503, is of gilded and polychrome wood in Gothic style, was commissioned by Bishop Jorge de Almeida and made by the Flemish masters Olivier de Gante and Jean d'Ypres. The cathedral was designed by Master Robert, a French architect, with the works overseen by Master Bernard and Master Soeiro. It was reworked in the 16th century, with the addition of tiled decoration, a portal and Renaissance chapel. The city of Coimbra dates back to Roman times and was the capital of Portugal from 1131 to 1255. Its historic buildings are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Picture by Manuel Cohen
