Jul 21, 2017  Lyrics for Processional to Calvary by Sir John Stainer. Fling wide the gates! Fling wide the gates, for the saviour waits. To tread in his royal way.

Fling wide the gates, He waits, the saviour waits to tread in his royal way. This is an extremely rare puzzle and very difficult to find.

Christ's insignificance among the crowds is a familiar device of painting (it recurs in the Preaching of John the Baptist, as well as ), as is the artificial placing of Mary and her companions in a rocky foreground, which is deliberately distanced from the dramatic events taking place behind them. Detail 1 from top leftBruegel's treatment of evolves in the course of his career from the bird's-eye views and extensive landscapes of the Large landscape series to the remarkable naturalism of the Months. Impossibly sheer outcrops of rock like this one at left characterize the landscape tradition of the founded.

Patinir's followers - in particular, (the brother of Bruegel's print publisher, ) and - had turned his style into a popular but stale formula. The sequence of Bruegel's landscape drawings and of the landscape in his paintings shows the gradual abandonment of this formula.

In this case, however, his desire to convey the rocky, unfamiliar terrain of the causes him to fall back on the ready-made landscape features of the. Detail 2 from centre rightIn a detail such as this at right, Bruegel's painting possesses a vividness which would seem to come from his observation of contemporary life. Public executions were a familiar feature of 16th century life, especially in troubled. Here Bruegel shows the two thieves who were to hang on either side of Christ being trundled to the place of execution. Anachronistically, both clutch crucifixes and are making their final confessions to the cowled priests beside them. The thieves, their confessors and the ghoulish spectators who surround the cart are all in contemporary dress.

In Bruegel's day public executions were well attended occasions which had the air of festivals or carnivals. Here Bruegel shows the absolute indifference of the gawping crowds to the fear and misery of the condemned men.

Detail 3 from right marginOn the mount of Golgotha (literally, 'place of skulls') the two crosses which are to bear the bodies of the thieves have been erected and a hole is being dug for the cross which is to bear Christ's body, as may be seen in the detail at left. Onlookers on foot and on horseback flock towards this gruesome spot through a landscape dotted with gallows on which corpses still hang and wheels to which fragments of cloth and remnants of broken bodies not eaten by the ravens still cling. Detail 4 from bottom rightWith the exception of Christ himself, the figures in the procession wear contemporary dress, and there can be no doubts that Bruegel meant his representation of the scene to have a particular reference to his own day.

The sacred figures - the assisted by and the other two Maries (only one of whom is shown here in the detail) - are separated from the main events by being placed on a small, rocky plateau.
