About this work

This drawing shows a close-up of a seated figure wearing a red robe and a crown of thorns. Around them, other people stand holding staffs and weapons, some with faces blurred or missing. The colors are faded—reds, browns, and blacks—with some areas worn away, revealing the paper underneath. The seated figure looks like they’re on trial, with others watching or guarding them. The style is rough, almost sketchy, with quick lines and heavy shading. If you like this kind of old religious drawing, check out the Museum of Ethnography.
