The artwork titled “CHRIST EN CROIX” by Tsuguharu Foujita belongs to the Expressionism art movement and falls under the genre of religious painting.
The artwork portrays Christ on the cross, a central figure in Christian iconography. Christ’s body is elongated and emaciated, emphasizing the agony and spiritual significance of the crucifixion. The background features a textured, gold-leaf-like appearance that contrasts sharply with the pale figure of Christ, enhancing the visual impact. The composition and color scheme reflect the Expressionist focus on emotional depth and existential themes.
