"Pilate Sends Jesus to Herod" is a notable artwork by the Scottish artist William Brassey Hole (1846–1917), created as part of his extensive series of religious illustrations. This particular piece is part of Hole's ambitious project to illustrate the life and teachings of Jesus Christ, a project that culminated in a series of works that were both deeply spiritual and historically informed. William Brassey Hole, primarily known for his landscape and religious paintings, brought a unique blend of realism and emotion to his biblical scenes, which was well received by the Victorian public and contributed to the revival of religious art in Britain during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

The artwork depicts the biblical episode where Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of Judea, sends Jesus Christ to Herod Antipas, the tetrarch of Galilee and Perea, after learning that Jesus is a Galilean and thus falls under Herod's jurisdiction. This event is recorded in the Gospel of Luke (23:6-12) and is a pivotal moment in the Passion of Christ, illustrating the political and judicial shuffling that marked the hours before the crucifixion of Jesus. Hole's depiction is notable for its attention to historical detail, the emotional depth it conveys, and its portrayal of the complex interplay of political and religious power dynamics of the time.

In "Pilate Sends Jesus to Herod," Hole employs his characteristic meticulous approach to detail and composition, setting the scene with a keen eye for the historical setting and the cultural context of the period. The artwork is part of Hole's larger body of work that aimed to provide a comprehensive visual narrative of the New Testament, showcasing his deep commitment to religious themes and his mastery of historical illustration. Through this and other works, William Brassey Hole contributed significantly to the visual culture of biblical stories, making them accessible and engaging to a wide audience. His illustrations have been appreciated not only for their artistic merit but also for their educational value, providing insights into the life and times of Jesus Christ and the historical context of the biblical narratives.
