This gouache painting depicts the criminal who was chosen for release instead of Jesus at his trial. The image, now at the Brooklyn Museum, focuses on Barrabbas's face as he smiles, surrounded by a crowd of figures whose faces are partially obscured, emphasizing his importance in this biblical narrative.
