Crown of Thorns, Christ sits on a couch with bound wrists between two executioners, who press a long stick on Christ's head with both hands, each leaning on the couch with one knee. Christ, in loincloth, wears a cloak hanging from the shoulders, which is tied together with a band in front of the chest and folded over the left knee. The left-hand man, with mustache, wears a beret, a pair of trousers and a shirt slipped from one shoulder, the other, seen from the back, has opened its mouth and is dressed in a jacket with short decorative sleeves and a short skirt. Both wear boots, the crowning with thorns: soldiers with sticks place a thorny crown on Christ's head and give him a rode (Matthew 27: 27-31, Mark 15: 16-20, John 19: 2-3).
