Jesus has been judged by the Roman Governor Pilatus and his faith has been decided. He might be represented with a Crown of Thorns, a cape and robe as he was the King of Jews. Blood can still be seen on his forehead, chest, arms and knees. The piece has beautiful brown glass eyes and magnificent hair, beard and moustaches. The left arm has a broken finger and the entire hand had to be glued back to the arm at some point. The legend “Jesus de la Paciencia” is written in the stand. Many different layers of paint can be found in this extremely well conserved carving form the Guatemalan Highlands.
