'INRI' are the initials of the title which Pilate ordered placed on the cross when Jesus was executed: Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum - Jesus of Nazareth King of the Jews. Paintings from the Renaissance and later include depictions of the inscription and use only the Latin initials. Historically, however, besides Latin, the charges were also written in Greek and Hebrew; probably in longhand. The Catholic Church has a relic that is purported to be a portion of the title of the cross. All the letters on the title read from right to left in all 3 languages. This would make the 'IRNI' of the target question more accurate than stylized Renaissance depictions.
Luke 23:38 And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
John 19:19 And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.
John 19:20 This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.
