About this work
An image of a frame with a painting of the centurion of Capernaum who begs Christ for help. The painting is drawn in outline using a graphometer. In Capernaum a Roman centurion kneels, surrounded by his soldiers, before Christ. He asks him to heal his servant. He has taken off his helmet for Christ, a shield-bearer holds it. Christ sends the centurion home and simultaneously heals his servant. Upper right: Plate X.
