Sulla scultura
These bronzes depict two episodes of the Passion story: the Flagellation and the Mocking of Christ. The French sculptor Girardon likely first cast Christ Bound to the Column (the Flagellation), originally designed by Du Quesnoy, around 1690. Subsequently, he added the Mocking of Christ after his own design. Although the figures are almost mirror images, their heads contrast, one looking downward, the other toward heaven. The two figurines were reunited in 2021.
