Mocking of Christ

Deutsche Grafik 1490–1498, circa 1490

The image shows several individuals around a seated figure. The central figure has a beard, long dark hair, and wears a robe, partially covered with a blindfold. Surrounding him are four other figures, each with varying expressions and gestures. One figure is standing behind the seated person and seems to be holding a stick or cane. The others wear hats or headgear, with two appearing to be gesturing toward the seated figure. The clothing is of a medieval or classical style, with tunics and long garments. The background has a simple color pattern of beige and blue, suggesting an outdoor setting against a cloudy sky.
