Try:
Marrow, James H.: Passion Iconography in Northern European Art of the
Late Middle Ages und Early Renaissance. A Study of the Transformation
of Sacred Metaphor into Descriptive Narrative. Kortrijk 1979 (Ars
Neerlandica 1).
For all I remember, the idea is not apocryphal but medieval. The idea
derives from medieval exegesis of the Old Testament (prefigurations of
Christ).
