Christ has been tied to a column in the courtyard of Pontius Pilate's house and will receive a flogging. This devotional, almost heavenly, rendering of Christ, rather than the brutal realism of the episode of the passion of Christ, is typical of Spanish painting.

The painting was acquired by William Bankes (1786–1855) from the Convent of Atocha in Madrid in 1814.
