Description

This is an amazing Frazetta preliminary with beautiful detail. A rare biblical Frazetta piece, it is a rendition of the crowd choosing to spare Barabbas rather than Jesus. It was commissioned by NBC as a newspaper ad to promote a television show. The piece was later published in Vanguard's Frazetta Sketchbook II.
7" x 7", circa 1968
