We turn this week to Frank Brangwyn, another modern British master of sacred art, for the fourth in our series of new works from the Sacred Art Pilgrim Collection depicting seven moments from the Passion of Christ. The multi-talented, Belgian-born, Roman Catholic artist created this hand-colored lithographic reproduction of a chalking drawing he made in 1912, combining two popular themes of sacred art associated with Christ's arrest and trial before Pontius Pilate, as described in the Gospels--the Mocking of Christ, showing Jesus reviled and abused by Roman soldiers, and Pilate's public display of the battered and bound Christ, known as Ecce Homo ("Behold the Man"), from the words the Roman prefect spoke to the hostile mob. The elevated, upright figure of Jesus in this agitated crowd scene displays an impassive nobility that brings to mind Rembrandt's famous 17th century drypoint print, Christ Presented to the People. The new Brangwyn lithograph can be found on his profile page in the Sacred Artists section. (John Kohan)
