Crucifixion of a Soldier

Photo-etching, 70 x 24cm
3 Crucifixion scenes from Michelangelo (St. Peter), Proudhon and Delacroix (both of Christ) sit alongside a newspaper image of a soldier killed by a mob going to a funeral in N. Ireland in 1988. Where is God when such evil breaks out in the hearts of ordinary men and women?
Yet Christ chooses innocently to die a horrible death, to enter into our pain and depravity, and show us the way to overcome it.
