In the depths of his suffering, Jesus endures unimaginable agony. The Flagellation of Christ by Lucas Cranach the Elder depicts this torment with raw emotion, as each lash leaves its mark on his battered body. Pieter Paul Rubens captures the same scene in 1617, emphasizing the pain and anguish etched across Jesus' face. The Temptation of Saint Anthony reveals another moment of distress for Jesus. In this triptych's reverse side, The Capture of Christ shows him being seized by those who would betray him. His expression reflects both physical pain and a profound sense of betrayal. Jan Gossaert's The Mocking of Christ transports us to a scene where mockery becomes an instrument to deepen Jesus' suffering. As he is ridiculed and spat upon, we witness his silent endurance amidst overwhelming humiliation. An anonymous artist from ca 1465 presents yet another depiction: The Flagellation of Christ showcases Jesus tied to a column while mercilessly whipped. This haunting image serves as a reminder that even in anonymity, his suffering remains timeless. Cosimo di Lorenzo Rosselli's Man of Sorrows portrays Jesus bearing not only physical wounds but also carrying the weight of humanity's sins upon his shoulders, and is through this sacrifice that he offers redemption to all who believe in him. Bartolome Esteban Murillo's Ecce Homo brings forth empathy as we gaze into the eyes of Jesus crowned with thorns. We are confronted with our own complicity in his agony and challenged to reflect on our actions. Jacopo Tintoretto paints two versions: one from the 1570s and another from around 1585-1590—both capturing vividly brutal flagellations endured by Christ at different moments in time. These images serve as powerful reminders that suffering knows no bounds or limitations. Matthias Stomer contributes a unique perspective with The Flagellation of Christ circa 1640.
