The Betrayal of Christ, from The Passion of Christ

This nocturnal engraving depicts the chaotic moment of Christ's arrest, illuminated by a single lantern and distant torches. In the center, Judas embraces Jesus while armored soldiers crowd the space, and in the foreground, an elderly Saint Peter lunges over a fallen man to sever his ear with a sword. The composition features the dynamic, muscular forms and high-contrast lighting characteristic of Dutch Mannerism.
