EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "He is guilty of death!" by Vasili Dmitrievich Polenov, we are transported back to the early 20th century Russia. The painting depicts a significant moment from the New Testament, specifically the trial of Jesus Christ before the Sanhedrin. The artist skillfully captures the tension and drama of this pivotal event through his use of oil on canvas. The high priest stands at the center, pointing an accusing finger towards Jesus, while members of the Sanhedrin surround them in intense discussion. Their expressions range from anger to curiosity as they deliberate over Jesus' fate. Polenov's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, bringing life and emotion to each character portrayed. Through his masterful technique, he invites us to reflect upon themes such as justice, faith, and sacrifice. This particular print comes from a private collection and serves as a testament to Polenov's contribution to Russian painting during that era. It not only showcases his artistic prowess but also highlights his ability to capture historical and religious narratives with profound impact. Whether you appreciate fine art or have an interest in biblical history, this powerful image will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression on anyone who beholds it.
