Because I like, conceptually, the various modernest takes on the common tropes of European art, here's Ecce Homo, in altarpiece-shape even, from Paul Delvaux. Now interestingly, it's not the right form to be an Ecce Homo painting, and is properly subtitled The Descent from the Cross, but I wonder if the misnomer had some sort of meaning to the artist...oh those wacky Belgians.
If you've got the cash, it's for sale in Christie's Feb 2013 auction, The Art of the Surreal.
