"Cristo Deriso" is a notable work of art by Giovanni Domenico Cappellino, an Italian sculptor active during the Baroque period. The sculpture, which translates to "Christ Mocked" in English, is a powerful representation of Jesus Christ in a moment of suffering and humiliation, as depicted in the Christian narratives of the Passion. Cappellino, who was known for his skillful work in marble, created this piece with a profound sense of emotion and physical realism, characteristic of the Baroque style that sought to evoke empathy and engage the viewer.

The artwork captures the intense moment when Christ, according to the New Testament, is mocked by the soldiers before his crucifixion. Cappellino's mastery is evident in the intricate details of Christ's pained expression, the textural contrast between the soft flesh and the harsh elements of the crown of thorns, and the drapery of the cloth. The sculpture stands as a testament to the artist's ability to convey complex human emotions and to reflect the theological and artistic preoccupations of his time.

While the exact date of creation is not well-documented, "Cristo Deriso" is believed to have been sculpted during the 17th century, a period when religious art was commissioned to inspire devotion and instruct the faithful. The sculpture would have been intended for a religious setting, possibly a church or a private chapel, where it would serve as a focal point for contemplation and prayer.

Giovanni Domenico Cappellino's "Cristo Deriso" remains an important work within the oeuvre of Baroque sculpture, illustrating the artist's technical prowess and the era's artistic sensibilities. It continues to be studied and admired for its emotional depth and aesthetic achievement, contributing to the understanding of Baroque art and its impact on the development of Western art history.
