About The Crowning with Thorns Caravaggio
The viewer cannot but sense the soldiers’ brutal downward thrust as they force the thorns into his flesh and bone. Yet Christ’s shoulders remain upright.  His posture is one of dignity. But his condition as a victim is seen in the way his head is thrust forward and his neck stretched out.  Caravaggio uses the play of light and shadow to focus us upon Christ’s neck and shoulders and therefore upon him as a victim. The white feather and the highlights on the suit of armour contrast with Christ’s exposed white skin. The man in armour is obviously in charge of the brutal procedure.  His armour renders him invulnerable. It gleams in the light and contrasts with the bare shoulders of the other three. Christ is naked except for his cloak. The blood is splattered on his bared chest reminds the viewer that the red cloak hides the open wounds on his back.  Caravaggio uses hands to further underline express the imbalance in power.  You can see that Christ’s hands are bound so that he must hold the makeshift sceptre between his fingers. The hand of the man wearing armour is not very far from Christ’s hands.   Notice that the man merely rests his handoff the ledge.  His hand does not take his weight. The hands of the soldiers have become fists as they exert great force.  He achieves a similar expression by contrasting the crown of thorns in the headgear of the other three.  From the white feather on the left, there begins what is a continuous line of light moving left to right and back again forming a kind of halo behind Christ’s head. At the centre of this image is Christ as the innocent victim of a brutal act but who, nonetheless, can retain a quiet dignity.
