About the piece
This 1650 oil painting by an Italian master captures the profound sorrow of the Pietà. The composition focuses on the emotional connection between Mary and the deceased Christ, highlighted by the striking contrast between his pale skin and her deep red and blue robes against a somber, dark background.
