Description
Peter Paul Rubens workshop of
Ecce Homo
Oil on copper
in 15,16x20,47
The painting can be dated to the 17th century, based on both the copper support and the pictorial material. The work clearly recalls the Ecce Homo by the Flemish painter Peter Paul Rubens, both in subject matter and stylistic approach. It is attributable to the Flemish school. The subject is drawn directly from Rubens’ Ecce Homo. Strong stylistic references and the thematic consistency suggest a production from the artist’s workshop, active in Antwerp from the early 1600s until his death in 1640. In particular, the chromatic range, the anatomical rendering of the figures, and the intense pathos conveyed by the image of Christ during the Passion, are notable. The iconography is built upon a theatrical staging of the scene almost as if presented on a stage with the viewer as part of the audience.
