Kuponywa kwa Malko (La guérison de Malchus)

James Tissot · 1886–1894
Brooklyn Museum, New York

Katikati ya msongamano wa askari wenye marungu, mikuki na taa, Yesu amesimama akiwa amefungwa kamba na kunyoosha mkono wake kugusa sikio la mtu mwenye ndevu aliyevaa kanzu ya samawati.

Mtumishi anakodoa macho, mkono wake umeinuliwa; askari wanaowazunguka wanatazama kwa nyuso kali. Tissot aliijaza karatasi kwa vichwa na silaha katika mwanga mwekundu wa mienge.

Kutoka maandiko

Mmoja wao anampiga mtumishi wa kuhani mkuu na “akamkata sikio lake la kulia” (Luka 22:50)

“akagusa sikio lake, akamponya” (Luka 22:51)
