About this work

This painting shows a group of people lifting a body off a cross. The sky is bright blue with red stars. One man in a blue robe hangs limp while others in red and brown robes support him. A small dog sits nearby, and a ladder leans against the cross. The names written around the figures are in another language. The colors are flat with no shading, and the figures look stiff and symbolic. Look up composition to see how artists arrange people and objects in a scene.
