Christ Portraits by Peter Howson: Christ/Christ in Agony

In you our ancestors trusted; they trusted, and you delivered
them. To you they cried and were saved; in you they trusted
and were not put to shame. But I am a worm and not human,
scorned by others and despised by the people. All who see me
mock me; they sneer at me; they shake their heads; “Commit
your cause to the Lord; let him deliver—let him rescue the
one in whom he delights!”
(Psalm 22:4-8,NRSV )
