Painting of a crowd of robed figures in a pale colonnaded hall, reaching toward a dark figure under a tall arch with a blue sky and city beyond.

Christ's Entry into Jerusalem

A loose, sketch-like painting of a crowd filling a colonnaded hall, with robed and turbaned figures kneeling and reaching toward a dark-cloaked figure framed by a tall arch. Pale grey and white tones are broken by touches of red, green and gold, and a distant city appears through the opening beneath a blue sky.

Español: Entrada de Cristo en Jerusalén

Una pintura suelta, de aspecto boceto, muestra una multitud que llena un salón con columnas, con figuras vestidas con túnicas y turbantes que se arrodillan y extienden los brazos hacia una figura oscura envuelta en una capa, enmarcada por un arco alto. Los tonos grises y blancos pálidos se rompen con toques de rojo, verde y dorado, y una ciudad lejana aparece por la abertura bajo un cielo azul.

Português: Entrada de Cristo em Jerusalém

Uma pintura solta, com aspecto de esboço, mostra uma multidão que preenche um salão com colunas, com figuras de mantos e turbantes ajoelhadas e estendendo os braços em direção a uma figura escura envolta em capa, emoldurada por um arco alto. Os tons de cinza e branco pálido são quebrados por toques de vermelho, verde e dourado, e uma cidade distante aparece pela abertura sob um céu azul.
