It is one of the much interpreted portraits of the Italian Renaissance, 59 to 81 centimeters small, but the subject of great guessing rats: “Die Geiskung Christi” by Piero della Francesca, which hangs in the brands in the Galleria Nazionale in the brands. The picture does not bear a date, it has no indication of a client and no fee document, but it has a strange arrangement: the nominal topic, the flagellation of Jesus, has been pushed to the back as if it were not about it. In the foreground as if the more important are, three men are in different presentation. On one of the steps in the background it is written that this picture is the work of the “Petri de Burgo Sancti Sepulcli”, ie the Piero from the Borgo San Sepolcro, and – only handed down but not proven – a inscription on the frame from the 2nd Psalm: “Convenerunt in Undum” – The kings of the earth lean against the Lord and his anointed.
