About this work

This painting depicts the Entombment of Christ, with the body of Christ supported on a stone tomb by a winged angel while a kneeling woman in pink and gold draperies holds his legs. A grieving woman in blue stands behind, and another angel gazes upward on the left, with a wicker basket and white cloth in the foreground.
