Christian Art: Peter Denies Jesus

Paintings illustrating the infamous incident where Peter denied knowing Jesus three times. The gospel of Mark records the incident as follows:

Then after a little while the bystanders again said to Peter, “Certainly you are one of them; for you are a Galilean.” But he began to curse, and he swore an oath, “I do not know this man you are talking about.” At that moment the cock crowed for the second time. Then Peter remembered that Jesus had said to him, “Before the cock crows twice, you will deny me three times.” And he broke down and wept.
