"Jesus Mocked by the Soldiers" is an oil painting by the French artist Édouard Manet, completed in 1865. The painting depicts a scene from the Passion of Christ, capturing the moment when Jesus is derided by Roman soldiers before his crucifixion. Manet's interpretation of this biblical episode is notable for its stark realism and departure from traditional religious art of the period, which often idealized its subjects.

The composition of the painting is characterized by a close-up view of the figures, with a tightly cropped scene that focuses on the interaction between Jesus and his tormentors. Jesus is portrayed at the center, his figure illuminated and bearing an expression of resigned suffering, while the soldiers surrounding him are cast in shadow, their features rendered with a degree of coarseness that emphasizes their brutality.

Manet's treatment of the subject matter reflects the influence of his contemporaries in the Realist movement, who sought to depict scenes of everyday life and historical events without romanticization. The artist's use of light and shadow, as well as his loose brushwork, are indicative of the transition to Impressionism, a movement that Manet would greatly influence though he never fully adopted its techniques.

"Jesus Mocked by the Soldiers" is considered an important work in Manet's oeuvre, demonstrating his skill in historical painting and his willingness to challenge the conventions of religious art. The painting is also a testament to Manet's engagement with themes of human suffering and dignity. It is housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
