Christ Bearing the Cross

 
I think Martin Schongauer works with engraving is really fascinating the way he engraves all those intricate details in metal must take alot of skill. You would have to have steady hands and the patience of Job to accomplish such a feat. Also you would have to get it right the first time because once you mess up you would have to scrap the whole thing and start it all over again.
