About this work

This painting, titled Assumption of the Virgin and attributed to Charles Le Brun, shows the Virgin Mary rising on a cloud in a blue mantle and rose-colored gown, supported by angels and a putto. Below, a group of robed apostles and onlookers gaze upward, with one figure in a white cloth kneeling beside an open tomb-like form. The composition is set against a dark rocky outcrop and a pale blue sky.
