The Mocking of Christ | Gerrit van Honthorst | 1617

A masterwork of Dutch Caravaggism, Gerrit van Honthorst’s "The Mocking of Christ" captures the cruel humiliation of Jesus with striking dramatic intensity. Illuminated by the warm glow of torchlight, the scene contrasts Christ’s serene resignation with the jeering faces of his tormentors. Honthorst’s mastery of chiaroscuro heightens the emotional tension, transforming this biblical episode into a study of human cruelty and divine endurance rendered with theatrical realism and profound spiritual gravity.
