Crucifixion or resurrection? Howson unveils latest work

It is the most striking depiction of Christ yet by one of Scotland’s most popular painters.

Wreathed in red flames, the imposingly large painting of Jesus in the pose of crucifixion, albeit without a cross, will be at the centre of Peter Howson’s new exhibition, The Night of the Soul, which opens next week.
