DESCRIPTION: THE FLAGELLATION OF CHRIST. The painting the we propose you depicts the moment of the Flagellation of Christ. The atmosphere is very dense, the handling of paint is so fluent that the cruel action taking place has its own powerful rhythm. The viewer is caught up in the horror. The near-naked Christ is being twisted into position by the torturer on the right while the torturer on the left tears at his hair. The process, the flagellation column, usually a decisive motif, does not appear, the symbol of Christ is not present but we can feel its presence, its drama, the whole composition is immersed in the blackness of the background. It is characterized by a diffuse, atmospheric luminosity and a classically monumental composition, sustained by a refined chromatic sensibility and vibrations of colour. Likewise, the extremely free and summary brushstroke that recomposes itself to the eye from a certain distance is a hallmark of our artist?s work.
