Ujumbe wa Mke wa Pilato. Pilato

James Tissot · 1886–1894
Brooklyn Museum, New York

Pilato ameketi kwenye kiti chake cha hukumu akiwa na joho la Kirumi jeupe lenye pindo za rangi ya machungwa, gombo mapajani mwake. Mke wake amekuja nyuma yake akiwa amejifunika shela nyeupe na anainama karibu kumnong'oneza sikioni, mkono ukiwa umeinuliwa usoni.

Pilato anageuza kichwa kusikiliza akiwa na sura ya wasiwasi. Askari wa Kirumi wenye mavazi ya chuma wanalinda upande wa kulia, kati yao mpiga tarumbeta, na kupitia tao upande wa kushoto umati unakusanyika uwanjani chini.

Kutoka maandiko

“Wakati alipokuwa akiketi kwenye kiti chake cha hukumu, mke wake alimtumia neno” (Mathayo 27:19)
