The Flagellation
Whips crack, the silence screams,
A tale of pain where justice redeems.
The figures lean in a crimson light,
A moment caught between wrong and right.

“The Flagellation” employs a dramatic chiaroscuro effect, with bold contrasts of light and shadow enhancing the emotional intensity. The warm, earthy tones and careful rendering of human anatomy echo Baroque influences, particularly in the realistic portrayal of anguish and tension. Brushstrokes are expressive yet controlled, giving the figures lifelike depth. This work is a classical narrative scene, merging realism with symbolic undertones of sacrifice and suffering.
