Doornenkroning, Lucas Cranach (I), 1509 print The soldiers of Pilatus have crowned the sitting Christ with a crown, attracted him a cloak and gave him a scepter in hand. Two soldiers press the crown with big thorns firmly on the head of Christ with two sticks. A man kneels in front of him while he mockingly sticks out his tongue, another man lies on the floor with two dogs while he watches laughing. There are several men from the Court of Appeal in the background. Against the wall at the top right, the Electoral and Ducal Heaps of Saxony are hanging on two shields. Germany paper the crowning

There are several men from the Court of Appeal in the background. Against the wall at the top right, the Electoral and Ducal Heaps of Saxony are hanging on two shields. Germany paper the crowning with thorns: soldiers with sticks place a thorny crown on Christ's head and give him a reed (Matthew 27:27-31; Mark 15:16-20; John 19:2-3)
