Giotto, The Mocking of Christ and Flagellation, 1305

Giotto's The Mocking of Christ and Flagellation shows the moment where Jesus is being tormented. This moment,which is represented in the passion of Christ, becomes the moment when those who once followed Jesus have turned on him after the events of Judas' betrayal. In the picture Jesus wears his infamous crown of thorns, but he has the halo drawn around his head as well. The man in the red may be Pontius Pilate. 

Giotto's representation of the mocking of Christ is a lot less brutal than other images of the mocking of Christ. In most cases Jesus is usually portrayed wearing only a loin cloth with his back facing the viewer, which showing the whippings he has received. Here he wears ornate robes and sits taking the jeers and jabs. Also many people take part in the mocking and flagellation whereas typically two men, servants of Pontius Pilate, whip him while Pilate watches.

In the painting the viewer can see Giotto's blue skies in the upper portion. The people all make up the foreground, with Jesus as the main focus. His robes have more design in them and attract the eye more to him than the others.
