The altar painting Calvary from Ackermann\u2019s time is preserved at the J\u00e4rva County Museum. The painting\u2019s author has hitherto remained unidentified. This painting was studied and restored at the start of the 1990s at the Kanut Conservation and Digitisation Centre.<\/p>\n
Miss Mohrenschildt from Marienhof Manor, which was an auxiliary manor (Hoflage in German) of Kurisoo Manor, gave Theodor Albert Sprengel\u2019s altar painting Christ on the Cross to the church as a gift in 1866. The picture depicts the Redeemer of the world and the sinner Mary Magdalene. Both are introspective and their poses are somewhat unnatural. Adam\u2019s large luminous skull as a symbol of death and the slithering serpent as a symbol of sin come across in the picture as a didactical exaggeration. The golden halo above Christ\u2019s head, the effeminate forms of the Redeemer\u2019s body, Mary-Magdalene\u2019s long tresses and round arms speak of Sprengel\u2019s wish to depict the event at Calvary as beautifully as possible. The painting\u2019s brownish overall colouring speaks of the D\u00fcsseldorf school\u2019s influence on Sprengel as an artist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
