"Ecce homo": This direct, frontal depiction of Jesus wearing the crown of thorns, his hands tied and holding a reed sceptre, is one of Juanes’s most succesful compositions. The meticulous rendering is reminiscent of Netherlandish painting. The strongly-lit figure stands out against a dark background, enhancing the viewer’s concentration on the emotional pathos of the image. (Museo del Prado, 1570)
