Description
In this painting Jesus Christ is seated and wears a crown of thorns. With the signature, Oertel refers to John 18:37. In this verse, part of John's account of Jesus's trial before Pilate, Pilate asks, "So are you a king?" Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. For this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to my voice" (NRSV).
