Depiction of the flogging of Jesus before his crucifixion. Jesus is shown in the middle dressed in yellow loincloth. His hands are tied behind his back. He has a big black beard. Blood is flowing on the ground. On his left and on his right, two soldiers are standing fully dressed with lashes in the hands.

"How they flogged Our Lord after having tied (his hands) behind his back"

I do believe Jesus really had this kind of beard! 🧔🏾
