About this work

In this painting, a bearded man in a long robe and crown holds a man in a white loincloth. The man in the loincloth has a crown of thorns and is being held in a way that suggests he's being supported. The background is a stone archway. The man in the loincloth has his head resting on the other man's shoulder, and his body is relaxed, as if he's being comforted. The man in the robe has a gentle expression on his face, which adds to the sense of tenderness in the scene. This painting is held at the Städel Museum.
