ecce homo
An early 20th-century fresco of Jesus by Elías García Martínez in Borja, Zaragoza, Spain
In August 2012 news broke about a restoration attempt by Cecilia Giménez, a woman in her 80s. BBC correspondent Christian Fraser said, "the once-dignified portrait now resembles a crayon sketch of a very hairy monkey in an ill-fitting tunic". It has now jokingly been dubbed "Ecce Mono", or "Behold the Monkey". Others have referred to it as "Potato Jesus".
More generally, Ecce Homo is Latin for "Behold the Man", a phrase spoken by Pontius Pilate at the trial of Christ. There are also various art works with this title other than Martínez's.
