Description

Caiaphas, the high priest, and his supreme council questioned Jesus in their palace.
The high priest said to him, "In the name of the living God, I ask you to answer us under oath: are you the Christ, the Son of God?" Jesus replied: "You say so. But I tell you, from now on you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Almighty, and coming on the clouds of heaven." At that moment the high priest tore his clothes and said, "He has insulted God...He is guilty and deserves death."
Jesus is now in the courtyard, mocked by the elders, whose expressions are striking in our painting.
A rather rare theme for this quality iconography.
Beautiful oil on copper, with an interesting play of chiaroscuro, in a gilded wooden frame with several missing pieces.
Flemish work around 1620
Dimensions 28 cm by 22 cm.
Very good condition.
