Christ in chains

Oil on canvas, cm 95 x 71

Frame cm 110 x 84

The figurative tradition representing Christ with chained hands dates back to the early Middle Ages, when an iconography of his sorrows spread throughout the world. The need to translate the Passion into images aimed at raising awareness of the forgiveness that occurred for all men, resulting from the Crucifixion. 

In the present painting is depicted the moment before the audience with Pilate. Christ has not yet been cruelly mocked by the soldiers, despite already wearing the crown of thorns and the purple cloak: he still does not have the wounds due to beatings. A man, with the typical Eastern turban, looks at the viewer revealing the tied hands of the Redeemer, simultaneously inviting a silent reflection about the destiny that is to be accomplished. The whole work is imbued with an intimate spirit of recollection, exalted by the dark background on which stands illuminated, and above all illuminating, the Christ.
