Pontius Pilate, Anti-Semitism, and the Passion in Medieval Art

Pontius Pilate, Anti-Semitism, and the Passion in Medieval Art

by Colum Hourihane (Author)

Synopsis

Pontius Pilate is one of the Bible's best-known villains - but up until the tenth century, artistic imagery appears to have consistently portrayed him as a benevolent Christian and holy symbol of baptism. This book looks at the shifting visual and textual representations of Pilate throughout early Christian and medieval art.
