Christ is Stripped of His Garments, plate ten from Stations of the Cross c. 1748 - 1749

This etching by Giovanni Domenico Tiepolo depicts the tenth station of the Stations of the Cross, where Jesus is stripped of his garments before being crucified. The scene is set against a backdrop of a stark, barren landscape. In the foreground, a group of figures surround Jesus, while a large cross looms over the scene. The etching was created around 1748-1749 and is part of a larger series that depicts the Passion of Christ. It's now part of The Art Institute of Chicago's collection. The detail and dynamic composition are hallmarks of Tiepolo's style, which emphasized dramatic light and movement.
