Part 4: Carrying the cross by himself

A work from the studio of Andrea Mantegna (1431-1506), Christ Carrying the Cross, is the focus of our fourth reflection for Holy Week.

These reflections for Holy Week, by the Revd Professor Sarah Foot, Regius Professor of Ecclesiastical History at the University of Oxford, are based on paintings in the collection of Christ Church, Oxford.
