What it depicts

Matthew 27:31-33Opened by a notation lookup, not by an editor. Iconclass 73D4 glosses this subject as “from Pilate's palace to Golgotha: the procession to Calvary (Matthew 27:31-33; Mark 15:20-22; Luke 23:26-33; John 19:17)”, and this library reads the Douay-Rheims, where the passage stands at Matthew 27:31-33. Iconclass states 4 references for this subject; the first one this corpus holds is used.

31And after they had mocked him, they took off the cloak from him, and put on him his own garments, and led him away to crucify him.

32And going out, they found a man of Cyrene, named Simon: him they forced to take up his cross.

33And they came to the place that is called Golgotha, which is the place of Calvary.
