Painted with oil on canvas, this artwork measures an impressive 182x123 cm and is housed in the Church of Saint-Pierre-de-Montmartre in Paris, France. Also known as "lo Spagnoletto". Ribera skillfully captures a poignant moment of mourning and sorrow. The painting depicts the powerful scene of Jesus Christ being taken down from the cross after his crucifixion. The Virgin Mary, filled with grief and anguish, cradles her son's lifeless body while surrounded by other mourners. The wounds inflicted upon Jesus during his crucifixion are prominently displayed, evoking a sense of empathy and compassion. Ribera's attention to detail is remarkable; every brushstroke conveys a profound understanding of human anatomy and emotion. Through this composition, he explores themes such as suffering, sacrifice, and redemption.
