Msafara Juu ya Mlima wa Mizeituni (Le cortège sur le mont des Oliviers)

James Tissot · 1886–1894
Brooklyn Museum, New York

Barabara inashuka kutoka Mlima wa Mizeituni kwa kona ndefu za kupindapinda, na mteremko wote umejaa watu. Tissot alichora msafara kutoka chini: vijana wanakimbia mbele wakipunga matawi ya mitende, wengine wanatandaza majoho yao.

Katikati, mdogo ndani ya umati, Yesu amepanda punda akiwa amevaa nyeupe. Juu yake barabara inapanda tena kilima, kando yake watu wakibeba matawi marefu ya mitende.

Kutoka maandiko

“watu wakatandaza mavazi yao barabarani” (Luka 19:36)

“Alipokuwa anateremka mlima wa Mizeituni, jumuiya yote ya wanafunzi wakaanza kushangilia na kumtukuza Mungu” (Luka 19:37)

Matawi ya mitende, ambayo Yohana anayataja (Yohana 12:13)
