''Ecce Homo'' is a significant Baroque painting by the Spanish artist Jusepe de Ribera, also known as José de Ribera or Lo Spagnoletto. Created in the 17th century, this work is a powerful representation of the biblical scene where Pontius Pilate presents a scourged Jesus Christ, crowned with thorns, to a hostile crowd before his crucifixion. The Latin title ''Ecce Homo'' translates to "Behold the Man," which are the words Pilate is said to have used when he showed Jesus to the people of Jerusalem.

Ribera, who was born in Valencia in 1591 and later moved to Italy, became a prominent figure in the Neapolitan school of painting. His work is characterized by a dramatic use of light and shadow, a technique known as tenebrism, which was also employed by his contemporaries, such as Caravaggio. Ribera's ''Ecce Homo'' is a prime example of this style, with its stark contrasts and intense emotional expression.

The painting depicts a moment of intense pathos, focusing on the suffering and humanity of Christ. Ribera's mastery in rendering textures and his attention to physical and emotional details are evident in the depiction of Christ's bruised and battered body, the coarse fabric of the robe, and the piercing gaze that engages the viewer.

''Ecce Homo'' by Jusepe de Ribera is held in high esteem not only for its artistic qualities but also for its historical and cultural significance. It reflects the Counter-Reformation's emphasis on religious themes that evoke an emotional response aimed at deepening the viewer's faith. The work is housed in various collections, with versions of the subject attributed to Ribera found in several museums around the world, attesting to the enduring impact of his interpretation of this poignant biblical scene.

Ribera's ''Ecce Homo'' continues to be studied and admired for its technical brilliance and its capacity to convey profound religious sentiment, making it a notable example of Spanish Baroque painting and a testament to Ribera's skill as a leading artist of his time.
