Lamentation by Giotto, 1305. The Lamentation of Christ [1] is a very common subject in Christian art from the High Middle Ages to the Baroque. [2] After Jesus was crucified, his body was removed from the cross and his friends mourned over his body.
Over a hilly background with a lake and a fortified city, is the scene of the Lamentation, which occupies the foreground of lower half of the painting. The body of Jesus is at the center, lying over a white shroud and held by one of the Pious Women, by Nicodemus and by Joseph of Arimathea. The latter dons a richly decorated hat with flowers.
The Deposition (also called the Bandini Pietà or The Lamentation over the Dead Christ) is a marble sculpture by the Italian High Renaissance master Michelangelo.The sculpture, on which Michelangelo worked between 1547 and 1555, depicts four figures: the dead body of Jesus Christ, newly taken down from the Cross, Nicodemus [1] (or possibly Joseph of Arimathea), Mary Magdalene and the Virgin Mary.
The painting shows the dead Jesus, held by Joseph of Arimathea and surrounded by the Pious Women, including an aged and distraught Mary.In the right part are three standing characters depicted on a diagonal line: from top, St. John the Evangelist, Mary Magdalene, and Nicodemus, the last two holding vases which contained balms used to prepare the corpse for the burial.
The painting has a rectangular shape, and shows Christ being buried with the weeping Mary and John the Evangelist holding his hands. The corpse is supported by Joseph of Arimathea and by Nicodemus dressed in refined clothing of the times and gazing out towards the spectator, once thought to be a self-portrait of the artist which is now known to portray Cosimo the elder.
