About this work
This triptych presents a Pietà in the central panel, with the grieving Virgin cradling the body of Christ against a dark background and a wooden cross behind them. The left wing shows a woman in a green garment holding a small jar, identified as Mary Magdalene, and the right wing shows a young man in a red and blue garment with hands clasped in prayer, identified as Saint John. Luis de Morales painted this work in 1570, and it is held by the Museo del Prado.
