Christ Before Pilate: Large Plate

미술관의 설명

This print exemplifies popular depictions of the Passion of Christ, which often united multiple parts of the New Testament story into one overwhelming scene, from the first half of the 17th century. Here Rembrandt van Rijn combined the Presentation of Christ to the people by Pontius Pilate and the Mocking of Christ by the people of Jerusalem into one large and deeply moving etching. Although surrounded by the Pharisees and a motley crowd of mocking onlookers, Christ appears disengaged as he looks to the heavens, his hands clasped in prayer.
