Description: | This is a copy of a Guido Reni Ecce Homo such as the one in the Louvre dated 1639-40. The Ecce Homo is a type of devotional image intended for private contemplation and identification with Christ's suffering during the Passion. This composition was a staple in religious imagery and Guido Reni repeated it many times, for instance, in the example in the Detroit Institute of Art which is dated to the early 1630s. | Subjects: | religion (Ecce Homo) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Reni, Guido (Italian painter and draftsman, 1575-1642) Æ After | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8383... | Go to resource |
