ITALIAN SCHOOL 16th Century “The Sanhedrin trial of Jesus” Oil on panel, 55.6 x 82.5 cm. £ 8,000-12,000 Provenance: The Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, Erste Sammlung sale at the Hofburg according to label attached (verso). Catalogue note: The present painting depicts Jesus after his arrest in Jerusalem and prior to his dispensation by Pontius Pilate. It is an event reported by all four canonical gospels of the New Testament. As can be seen, Jesus sits quietly and does not mount a defense, rarely responding to the accusations against him. The Jewish authorities condemn Jesus for not denying that he is the Son of God. Pontius Pilate, the governor of Roman Judaea, asks that he be tried for claiming to be the King of the Jews.
