About this work

This painting shows a group of people gathered around a man who has been taken down from a cross. The man is wrapped in a white cloth and is being held by several people, including a woman in a white headscarf and a man in a red robe. The background is a warm, golden color, and there are several objects scattered around the scene, including a skull, a ladder, and a crown of thorns. In the top corners of the painting, there are two cherubs holding objects that appear to be arrows and a wreath. The overall mood of the painting is one of sadness and reverence.
