Christus voor Kajafas 1582

"Christus voor Kajafas" (Christ Before Caiaphas), an engraving by Johann Sadeler I, depicts a scene from the Passion of Christ. The artwork shows the moment when Jesus is brought before the Jewish high priest, Caiaphas, who is seated on a throne with other figures. The detail and drama of the scene, with its contrast between light and dark, makes it a powerful depiction of this important event in Christian history. Sadeler's work was created in 1582 and is currently held by the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
