About the piece
Created around 1605, this influential work by Caravaggio captures the moment Pontius Pilate presents Jesus to the public. The painting is a supreme example of tenebrism, where deep, enveloping shadows contrast with brilliant highlights to create a sense of intense physical presence and psychological drama.
