About the piece
This mid-17th-century oil painting by Jan Cossiers captures the emotional and physical intensity of the Flagellation of Christ. Through the masterly use of chiaroscuro, a hallmark of the Baroque era, the artist highlights the illuminated, vulnerable figure of Christ against a somber, shadowed background occupied by his tormentors.
