"In front of the High Priest (Grey Passion-3)" is a 1500 oil painting by Hans Holbein the Elder. The scene depicts the moment when Jesus Christ is brought before the high priest, with soldiers surrounding him. Holbein's work, characteristic of the Northern Renaissance, uses precise detail and realistic representation, depicting the solemnity of the occasion in a dramatic and emotional manner. The painting, currently housed in the Staatsgalerie Stuttgart, is a notable example of Holbein's skill in capturing human emotion through detailed and impactful imagery.
