Η Τιμή

A Roman nail is pressed against an open hand as the suffering face of Jesus Christ appears beyond it, drawing the eye to the cost of the crucifixion. The close view centers on the moment of piercing, where human violence meets divine surrender. The hand, nail, and blurred countenance of Christ proclaim the weight of atonement: the sinless Son gives Himself willingly, bearing shame and pain for the redemption of the world.

This artwork speaks to Good Friday, Easter reflection, communion meditations, sermons on sacrifice, and teaching on the wounds of Christ. It visually echoes the testimony that Jesus was crucified and later identified by the nail marks in His hands, turning an instrument of execution into a sign of mercy, forgiveness, and fulfilled salvation.
