This drawing, "Divestment of Christ," by Caspar Fraisinger, is a powerful depiction of the moment when Jesus is stripped of his clothes before his crucifixion. The scene is set in a crowded courtyard, with soldiers and onlookers gathered around the central figure of Christ. Fraisinger, born in 1560, expertly captures the drama and pathos of the moment, using subtle shading and expressive lines to convey the emotional turmoil of the scene. This work is a fine example of Renaissance-era depictions of the Passion of Christ and is currently housed in the Städel Museum.
