Vic, Espagne, troisième projet pour la cathédrale.
Toute la tension dramatique du récit évangélique est condensée dans cette puissante mise en scène où le jeu, sous un éclairage très contrasté, entre la verticale, accentuée par le geste de délivrance, et l'horizontale statique des marches et de l'étoffe, vient intensifier la terrible solitude du mannequin.
