"Mr. Judas" from The Complete Works of Béranger 1836

"Mr. Judas" is a lithograph by French artist J.J. Grandville from 1836. Grandville, known for his satirical caricatures, depicts Judas Iscariot as a seemingly ordinary man, emphasizing his betrayal of Jesus through the text beneath the image. The illustration, originally part of "The Complete Works of Béranger," provides a social commentary on the hypocrisy and betrayal present in everyday life, drawing a parallel to the biblical figure of Judas. The work is part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York City.
