Brief Description
Three figures on a balcony, one with a crown of thorns, overlook a large crowd below
Detailed Description
Multiple figures are arranged on two levels. On an elevated stone balcony, three figures are visible. To the left, a bearded man in a tall, dark hat holds a staff vertically. Next to him, a figure with a crown of thorns and bound wrists looks downwards, their body partially obscured by a railing. To the right of this figure, a man in a white, long-sleeved shirt and dark trousers stands with an open mouth, looking down. He holds a whip with multiple strands in his right hand, which is positioned near his hip. Behind these figures, a building with arched windows and a pointed roof is visible. Below the balcony, a crowd of people gathers, looking upwards. In the foreground, a man in a long, flowing robe and a distinctive, possibly horned or winged hat stands with both hands outstretched, palms open, looking up towards the balcony. His robe is cinched at the waist with a band, and a large, oval-shaped buckle is visible on his left hip. He wears light-colored boots and dark sandals. To his right, a group of men, some wearing helmets and holding spears, are tightly packed, their faces turned upwards towards the figures on the balcony.
