Pilato Anawa Mikono (Pilate se lave les mains)

James Tissot · 1886–1894
Brooklyn Museum, New York

Tumesimama nyuma ya walinzi wa Kirumi kwenye ngazi za kiti cha hukumu, tukitazama kupita kofia zao za chuma na majoho mekundu. Pilato, akiwa na joho la Kirumi jeupe, ananyoosha mikono yake juu ya bakuli huku mtumishi akimimina maji juu yake.

Upande wa pili, umati mkubwa unajaza matuta na paa za mji, na bendera za jeshi zinainuka upande wa kulia. Tissot aliuficha uso wa Pilato; ishara yake tu ndiyo inayoonyeshwa.
