Judas Iscariot can be seen identifying Jesus to the soldiers with a kiss, while the other apostles react in various states of shock and defense. The print is characterized by its stark contrasts of light and shadow, the fine lines and textures that bring depth and movement to the scene, and the expressive gestures and faces of the figures.
