This magnificent 19th-century painting depicts the first act of Christianity's Stations of the Cross: the Judgment of Jesus Christ by Pontius Pilate. It is an exceptional work of art, thanks to its striking details that plunge the viewer right into the heart of the event. You'll see Jesus, overwhelmed and condemned to crucifixion, surrounded by Roman legionaries armed with spears. Jesus is bound by ropes, ready to be led to the second stage where he will carry his cross. Moreover, a captivating detail features a young woman washing Pontius Pilate's hands, giving rise to the proverbial "hand-washing" expression.

This superb 19th-century church painting shines with luminosity and ochre hues. Its imposing size, 156 cm x 115 cm, framed in an original gilded oak frame, is a rarity. This work is ideal for adorning a large home or private chapel, adding a spiritual and artistic dimension to your space.
