David Teniers likely produced an oil study on canvas or panel (known as a pasticcio) of every painting in the collection of Leopold William of Austria, which served as models for the printmakers.

Not all pasticci have survived., Christ alone (also called 'Ecce Homo'), A monochrome engraved image of a bare-chested bearded man shown from the waist up, wearing a woven crown around his head and a draped cloth over one shoulder, with a radiant halo of light lines behind his head, his gaze turned slightly to the side, a long slender staff held diagonally across his body, his hands resting on a ledge in front of him, a densely cross-hatched dark background filling the rectangular frame and a lighter border surrounding the scene.
