Pilate Washing His Hands is a 1484 by German 15th Century, a Renaissance work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a man washing his hands in a bowl of water. He's wearing a robe and has a serious expression. The background is dark and hard to make out. The man's robes and the bowl are detailed, but the rest of the scene is not very clear. It looks like the painting is old and has been damaged over time. If you want to learn more about this style of art, you might want to look into the Renaissance.
This 15th-century German artist carved vivid religious scenes into metal and wood, then hand-painted them in bright, symbolic colors.
