About this work

The painting depicts a figure with a crown of thorns, dressed in a yellow robe with a red undergarment. The figure holds a staff in their right hand and gestures with their left. The background is a mottled grey. A notable detail is the use of contrasting colors to draw attention to the figure's face and hands. The artist's use of color creates a sense of depth and emotion in the painting. To learn more about the artist's style and technique, look up the Master of Sant Esteve d'Andorra.
