Com o título original Kreuzabnahme, Max Beckmann [Leipzig, 12 Fevereiro 1884 – Nova Iorque, 27 Dezembro 1950] representa nesta obra de 1917 a sua visão do sofrimento corporal, a que se seguiriam representações do homem na sua angústia espiritual, no decurso de um período claramente dominado pela perturbação da sua passagem pelas trincheiras da Primeira Guerra Mundial.

From Paul Cézanne [19 January 1839 – 22 October 1906], The Bathers, 1899/1904
Through his studies of groups of bathers outdoors, Paul Cézanne reconceived a classical subject in a modern, pictorial idiom. Though clearly related, The Bathers is not a study for either of the monumental canvases of bather subjects that the artist left unfinished at his death; rather, it is an independent, exploratory work painted with a more spritely touch. For all its compositional complexity, it retains the lightness of a watercolor, with thin parallel strokes and dashes and areas of white-primed canvas showing through the paint.
Contemporâneo dos impressionistas, o pintor francês Henri Fantin-Latour [14 Janeiro 1836 – 25 Agosto 1904] teve um percurso mais romântico através dos temas florais, naturezas-mortas, retratos familiares e de intelectuais da época. A obra do período simbolista ‘La tentation de saint Antoine’ – 1897, pertence ao Petit Palais em Paris.
