Beweinung Christi is a 1594 unspecified by Palma il Giovane, a Mannerism work, depicting Jesus Christ, held at Bavarian State Painting Collections.
This painting shows a somber scene of people gathered around a man's body. The man is shirtless, with a cloth wrapped around his waist, and his head is tilted back. Two women and two men are surrounding him, their faces filled with grief. In the background, there are three crosses on a hill. The artist has used a range of colors to create a sense of depth and emotion in the painting. The figures are dressed in dark, muted tones, which adds to the somber mood of the scene.
