Christ before the High Council is a 1913 by Wilhelm Morgner, held at National Gallery of Art.
This print shows a simple black shape against a light background. The lines form a rough, angular figure with a wavy outline, sitting on a flat base. The whole image is tight and geometric, with no shading or color beyond the black ink. The figure looks like it might be a person, but it’s drawn in a way that feels more like a sketch than a finished drawing. The artist signed it in the corner, but the name is hard to read. If you like this style, check out Morgner, Wilhelm.
