"Jesus føres for dommerne" ("Jesus is Led Before the Judges") is a 1901 etching by Danish artist August Jerndorff, depicting a moment from the Passion of Christ. The artwork, currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, captures a dramatic scene as Jesus, surrounded by soldiers and officials, is being escorted towards his trial. The print's dark and somber tones, achieved through the skillful use of etching techniques, contribute to a sense of foreboding and emphasize the gravity of the event. This depiction of the biblical event offers a poignant reflection on faith and justice, providing a powerful visual interpretation of a pivotal moment in Christian history.
