XII. Jesus dies

The arms of Jesus are stretched upon the cross-beam reaching out far into the sky. Dark is the sun and purple light paints the landscape. The sun seems to shrink in the face of the incomprehensible sacrifice.

Jesus is alone, close to the sky, but far from heaven.

The thief, who was crucified with Him is very distant. Is he able to understand the words Jesus is speaking to him or is he dreaming them? Scandalous, yet absurd it seems in a situation, which knows only one possibility for men - death, the end.
