# Ecce Homo [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [SODOMA, Il]() - Date: 1501-1550 - Technique: Oil on poplar, 60 x 46 cm ## Commentary This painting \(presently on loan to the Brera from a private collection\) can be considered one of the most refined of the panel paintings by Sodoma. The picture highlights the half-length figure of Christ, whose bound hands are crossed in front of his naked breast. Two figures emerges from the dark background: the man on the left seems to be a Roman soldier. The man on the right is of mature age, wearing a turban, and he seems to touch the shoulder of Christ from behind. ## Related artworks - [Allegory of Celestial Love]() - [Benedict Presents the Olivetan Monks with His Rule]() - [Cupid in a Landscape]() - [Deposition from the Cross \(detail\)]() - [Deposition from the Cross]() - [Flagellation of Christ]() - [Life of St Benedict, Scene 1: Benedict Leaves His Parent's House]() - [Life of St Benedict, Scene 11: Benedict Founds Twelve Monasteries]() - [Life of St Benedict, Scene 12: Benedict Receives Maurus and Placidus \(detail\)]() - [Life of St Benedict, Scene 12: Benedict Receives Maurus and Placidus]() - [Life of St Benedict, Scene 13: Benedict Frees a Monk]() - [Life of St Benedict, Scene 15: Benedict Fishes the Pieces of a Broken Ax \(detail\)]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
