Christ Leaving the Court

Christ Leaving the Praetorium is an oil-on-canvas painting by the French artist Gustave Doré, created between 1867 and 1872. It was the largest of his religious paintings, with the dimensions of 609 by 914 cm, and is considered to be "the work of his life". The painting was a great success, and it was reproduced in engraving in 1877. Doré himself created other replicas, of which two are known to be extant: one, significantly smaller, is in the Bob Jones University Picture Gallery in Greenville, in South Carolina; the other, almost as large as the original, is kept in the Musée d'Arts de Nantes.

The original was acquired in 1988 by the Strasbourg Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, at the painter's birthplace. It required a long restoration, carried out in public from 1998 to 2003, in the museum's large Gustave Doré Room, where it is exposed.
