Jesus again before Caiaphas
Wenceslaus Hollar, after a follower of Hans Holbein the Younger
This is a drawing of a group of hooded figures in a medieval interior gathered around a figure seated on a throne. The composition features a series of arches in the background, including a round window and a columned inset. On the right, a highly adorned figure sits in a throne elevated by steps while various cloaked figures approach carrying staffs and other symbolic items. The drawing's details include flowing robes, ornate headgear, distinct architectural setting, and a gargoyle-like figure above. Intricate hatchings and fine lines offer depth and shadow, enhancing the scene's dramatic and formal atmosphere.
