'Ecce Homo' by Mateo Cerezo

Odysseus himself is a prototype of the Christ figure for the way he suffers the whims of the gods. Ecce Homo means "behold the man," the Latin words used by Pontius Pilate when he presents Jesus to a hostile crowd shortly before the crucifixion.  Ecce Homo was a popular religious theme for 16th and 17th century artists. This version is by Mateo Cerezo the Younger of the late Madrid school; he died young at age 29. I selected this painting because it reminds me of the MAGA "White Jesus" crowd and Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ; perhaps the filmmakers were influenced by it.
