Fedha ya Kodi (Le denier de César)

Brooklyn Museum, New York
Kwenye ngazi mbele ya Hekalu, kundi la wanaume wenye vilemba na majoho ya fahari linamzunguka Yesu. Mzee mmoja ananyoosha sarafu kiganjani mwake, na Yesu, akiwa amevaa nyeupe, anaitazama chini mkono mmoja ukiwa juu.
Nyuma yao zinainuka nguzo za kijani zenye vichwa vilivyopakwa dhahabu, na kwenye ngazi za juu wanaume wengine wamesimama wakitazama. Tissot alimpa kila mmoja wa wanaouliza uso wake na mavazi yake yenye nakshi.
Kutoka maandiko
- “Je, ni sahihi kisheria kulipa kodi kwa Kaisari au hapana?” (Mathayo 22:17)
- “Nionesheni pesa itumikayo kulipia kodi.” Ndipo wakamletea dinari (Mathayo 22:19)
Ubunifu wa msanii
- Mkutano kwenye ngazi za Hekalu
- Majoho yenye nakshi nyingi ya wanaouliza
