About this work

A three-panel altarpiece shows the Virgin Mary cradling the body of the dead Christ in a central panel, with a cross rising behind them. The side panels depict a weeping woman holding an ointment jar and a young man with clasped hands, with Latin inscriptions along the lower edges. Luis de Morales painted this triptych in 1570, and it is held by the Museo del Prado.
