About the Artwork

1886-1894
Opaque watercolor over graphite on gray wove paper

In the ninth hour of the Passion (three o'clock in the afternoon), Jesus "gives utterance to that cry of anguish, the most heartrending which ever resounded upon this earth," Tissot writes. In his commentary, Tissot indicates that Christ's words—the title of this work—are derived from the opening verse of the 22nd Psalm, a text that begins with a lamentation on God's seeming absence or desertion.

Collectors often choose this fine art image when searching for fine art oil painting that feels substantial rather than decorative or disposable.
