Exclaiming \u201cBehold the man!,\u201d Pilate shows the beaten and bloodied Christ to the crowds. The people gathered in the court below urge his execution, with pointed fingers raised in accusatory gestures.

On the loggia before the assembled crowd, Pilate\u2014convinced of Jesus\u2019 innocence and impressed by his dignity, according to Tissot\u2019s account\u2014publicly washes his hands on the loggia before the square, symbolically distancing himself from the execution to follow.
