Seated Christ in red robe holds a banner as a kneeling woman with long golden hair bows before him, surrounded by onlookers in a dark setting.

Christus en de boetvaardige zondaars

Christ sits enthroned in a red mantle, holding a banner aloft, while a kneeling woman with long golden hair bows before him beside a chalice-like vessel. Crowned and bearded onlookers, a reclining man and a bare-backed figure crowd the dark, dramatic Baroque scene painted in rich oil colour.

Español: Cristo y los pecadores arrepentidos

Cristo está sentado en un trono, vestido con un manto rojo, sosteniendo un estandarte en alto, mientras una mujer arrodillada de largo cabello dorado se inclina ante él junto a un recipiente parecido a un cáliz. Espectadores coronados y barbudos, un hombre recostado y una figura con la espalda desnuda completan la escena barroca oscura, pintada con colores intensos al óleo.
