The Flagellation of Christ (probably 1455–1460) is a painting by Piero della Francesca in the Galleria Nazionale delle Marche in Urbino Italy. Called by one writer an enigmatic little painting the composition is complex and unusual and its iconography has been the subject of widely differing theories. Kenneth Clark placed The Flagellation in his personal list of the best ten paintings calling it ‘the greatest small painting in the world’.
