About this work
Christ stands in the colonnade of Solomon in the temple and is in conversation with some Jewish men. In the foreground, Pharisees and a man picking up a stone to throw at Christ. On the right in the background, a shepherd with his sheep, a reference to Christ's statement that his sheep listen to his voice and follow him. Below the image, a reference in Latin to the biblical text in John 10. This print is part of an album.
