The subject of the Lamentation of Christ has been painted since the inception of Christianity and it was a common subject of Italian Renaissance painters. Botticelli completed another version entitled Lamentation over the Dead Christ between 1490 and 1495. The current painting was completed around the same period between 1490–1492.
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.
