Jheronimus Bosch biography

This work is linked to Mark 15:17

Quietly Jesus endures torture and ridicule. His eyes show compassion. He looks straight at the viewer.

Hieronymus Bosch shows Jesus in a white robe, perhaps because white is a more innocent color than the purple mentioned in the Bible.
