Ecce Homo (Daumier)
Ecce Homo is an unfinished painting produced in 1850 by the French painter and caricaturist Honoré Daumier which is in the collection of the Museum Folkwang in Essen, Germany. The painting, executed in undertones of various shades of brown, depicts a scene in the Good Friday trial of Jesus when Christ is presented to the mob as a figure of ridicule by Pontius Pilate with the words "Ecce Homo", translated in the Bible as "Behold the Man", but more appropriately as an accusatory "Look at this man". The viewer is situated in the crowd in a position where he can observe Christ standing still and resolute, silhouetted against a sacred light, and asked to decide whether to sympathise with Him or with his tormentors.
