“Ecce Homo” is a Latin phrase meaning “Behold the Man,” which is derived from the New Testament account of Jesus Christ’s trial before Pontius Pilate. This phrase is found in the Gospel of John, where Pilate presents Jesus to the crowd after He has been scourged and mocked by the Roman soldiers. The phrase is significant in Christian theology and art, symbolizing the moment when Jesus, the innocent Lamb of God, is presented to the world as the suffering servant.
