Kristi gravlæggelse is a 1782 unspecified by Unknown, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This scene shows a group of people gathered around a rocky cliff at dusk. Some men hold torches, lighting up the area, while others stand or kneel near a body wrapped in cloth. One man in the center seems to be in charge, pointing or speaking to the group. The background is dark and shadowy, with a few trees and a distant cross on a hill. The body on the ground looks like it’s being prepared for burial, with one person holding a cloth over the face. The mix of torchlight and shadow creates a tense, solemn mood.
