From limited details of Christ's agonies in the Gospels, medieval artists, in the words of one scholar, "approximated these grisly violations with the unerring eye of a forensic pathologist," creating an image of the pain inflicted on his battered body that mimed, and may have legitimated, the increasingly gruesome legal spectacle of torture and public execution."

Blood from the beating he has already endured covers his entire body and forms a pool at his feet. Simon Bening chose to depict the most dramatic moment possible: all four of the torturers swing back their whips at the same time, making the viewer anticipate the simultaneous strikes that Christ's already broken body will have to endure."
