Christus voor Annas c. 1470 - 1550

"Christus voor Annas" is an anonymous engraving depicting the moment when Jesus is brought before Annas, the high priest, during his Passion. Created sometime between 1470 and 1550, the artwork shows a detailed scene with multiple figures. The focus is on Jesus, standing in the center, surrounded by his captors. The work, now in the Rijksmuseum, highlights the drama and tension of this biblical moment. The small dimensions, 99 mm high and 75 mm wide, suggest a personal devotion piece, often used for private contemplation. This print offers a glimpse into the artistic practices and devotional trends of the late medieval and early Renaissance period.
