- Description is exactly "The teachings of the <em>Imitatio Christi</em> inspired Christian believers across Europe to model their lives upon that of Jesus Christ. This allegorical woodcut, the unique recorded copy, shows a Dominican monk who aspires to be "crucified" just as Jesus Christ was, with the goal of becoming the ideal Christian monk. Throughout the print, Latin captions explain how such bodily punishment leads to spiritual fulfillment."
