Hans Schäufelein’s woodcut print, "Christ Scourged", from the series "The Doctrine, Life, and Passion of Jesus Christ", depicts the moment of Christ's scourging. The print, created in 1537, portrays Christ bound to a column, while three figures violently strike him with whips. The dramatic scene is rendered with stark detail, showcasing the cruelty of the act and the suffering of Christ. Schäufelein, a prominent German artist, created this print for a wider audience to contemplate the passion of Christ during the Reformation.
