The painting shows a scene of people taking Jesus down from the cross. It's a somber moment. The details are interesting - the way the people are arranged, the expressions on their faces, and the folds of their clothes all suggest a sense of sadness and respect. Check out the work of artist: Albrecht Dürer (German, 1471–1528) for more like this.
