EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning altarpiece, dating from the 1480s, depicts the Flagellation of Christ, an essential scene from the Passion of Christ narrative. The Passion of Christ was a popular theme for altarpieces during the 15th century in northern Europe. This full-length painting, executed in oil on panel, showcases Christ being beaten and whipped by a group of men, including a gaoler, as he stands tied up against a gold background. The use of gold leaf adds an otherworldly quality to the scene, highlighting the divine nature of Christ. The Passion of Christ refers to the story of Christ's suffering, from his arrest to his Crucifixion. This altarpiece expands the narrative to include the Flagellation, an event that took place before Christ's trial before Pontius Pilate. The scene is set in a prison or penitentiary, with Christ's accusers gathered around him, some holding whips and others preparing to take part in the beating. The painting is a powerful depiction of Christ's persecution and suffering, which was a common theme in medieval art. The use of color and the expressive faces of the figures add depth and emotion to the scene, making it a moving and thought-provoking work of art. The altarpiece is a testament to the enduring power of religious art to inspire and move people, and it remains an essential part of our cultural heritage.
