Foreshortened Christ

Andrea Mantegna's Foreshortened christ belongs in Renaissance in quattrocento Italy, it is Tempera on canvas and can be found in Pinacoteca di Berera, Milan. This painting is very interesting and different yet simple. The angle on which Jesus is showed manages to find his whole body is shown which i find very amusing. The painter also shows his physical features carefully. the marks from his crucifixion are also seen on his feet and hand.
