Passion Set: Christ Crowned with Thorns

Zacharias Dolendo

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white illustration of a scene with a central figure being crowned with thorns. The central figure, a man with an expression of suffering, sits on a stone block or chair. He is bare-chested and has a crown of thorns on his head. Several men surround him, some of whom are reaching out to touch him or the crown. One man to the left of the central figure appears to be kneeling. To the left of the central figure, a man stands holding a long spear. In the background, there are several columns and an archway. A man stands on a pedestal in the background, behind the central figure. The scene appears to be set in a courtyard or other outdoor area. The illustration is detailed and includes textures such as clothing and stone.
