"Crowning with Thorns" (1620) by Anthony van Dyck is a dramatic depiction of the moment when Jesus is crowned with thorns before his crucifixion. The painting depicts Jesus bound and seated, with soldiers pressing a crown of thorns onto his head. Van Dyck's masterful use of light and shadow emphasizes the suffering of Christ, while the stark realism of the figures adds to the emotional impact. The painting is currently on display at the Museo del Prado in Madrid.
