Michael Godard - 'The Three Crosses' Limited Edition Giclée on Canvas
This is a limited edition giclée on canvas by the contemporary artist Michael Godard, numbered 158 out of an edition of 500. The artwork depicts the crucifixion scene at Calvary, featuring three dark silhouettes of figures on crosses set against a dramatic, back-lit sky. The color palette is dominated by deep blues, whites, and blacks, with a radiant sunburst effect emanating from behind the central cross, creating a halo effect through the surrounding cloud formations. The composition uses high contrast to emphasize the religious symbolism. As a giclée, it likely features gallery-wrapped edges where the image continues around the sides of the wooden stretcher bars. The surface appears to have a textured finish typical of Godard's high-quality prints, intended to mimic original paint strokes. Based on the provided number '158/500', this is a restricted production run, which is a key factor in its valuation. The condition appears excellent with no visible scuffing, fading, or canvas sagging shown in the image. Although Godard is famously known as the 'Rockstar of the Art World' for his playful 'Olives' series, this piece represents his more somber, spiritual collection. It likely dates from the early to mid-21st century and features the artist's signature (though partially obscured in this view) in the lower right quadrant.
