Ecce Homo

Martin Schongauer

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a man standing before a group of others in a historical setting. The central figure is wearing a crown of thorns and a long robe. The people surrounding him are clad in historical clothing, some wearing helmets and holding spears. The architecture in the background has arches and stone detailing. A dog is sitting on the ground at the bottom left. Fine lines and detailed shading are used to convey textures and expressions.
