A respectful and devotional representation of a biblical scene inspired by the Book of John, chapter 18, verse 34. Jesus is seen in a peaceful yet serious mien as he addresses an unseen recipient. His question challenges the autonomy of the questioner, causing a moment of contemplation. The scene is imbued with subtle, velvety shades reflecting the traditional medium of watercolor. The colors shift between soft earth tones that evoke a sense of calm and divine presence. No text or words are present in the scene. Note: The style should be evocative of pre-1912 religious art, especially Renaissance and Baroque periods with an emphasis on dramatic and emotive compositions.

Jesus replied, ‘Do you ask this of your own accord, or have others spoken to you about me’ (Jn 18:34)
Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me?
