Christ Crowned with Thorns (Ecce Homo), and the Mourning Virgin. Artist: Adriaen Isenbrant (Netherlandish, active by 1510-died 1551 Bruges). Dimensions: 41 1/2 x 36 1/2 in. (105.4 x 92.7 cm). Date: ca. 1530-40.In this austere and haunting image, Christ is depicted in the form of an Ecce Homo--presented to the people of Jerusalem by Pilate, the Roman prefect of Jerusalem, prior to being led off to be crucified. He wears a crown of thorns and on his exposed torso bears the wounds from his flagellation. The hostile crowd, however, is omitted. Seen up close, in half-length and nearly life-size, Christ and his mother have been isolated for devotional contemplation. They are presented directly to the viewer, who becomes Christ's judge as well as a participant in the Virgin's grief. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
