About the piece
This evocative work by Claude Vignon captures the profound sorrow of the Pietà, with the Virgin Mary looking heavenward as she supports the body of Christ. Executed in a dramatic Baroque style around 1635, the composition uses strong chiaroscuro to highlight the figures against an atmospheric, dark sky, while small weeping cherubs add a touch of poignant intimacy to the scene.
