A solemn Saint John the Evangelist, dressed in red and green, gently supports Christ’s elegant corpse. Christ’s pallor is striking – his lips and skin are turning grey-blue – and his brow is smeared with the blood he shed from wearing the crown of thorns. In the centre of the composition is the Virgin Mary, joining her hands in prayer and looking down at her son in extreme sorrow. Mary Magdalene bends over and brings her face close to Christ’s feet, as if about to kiss the wounds caused by the nails that held him to the Cross.\n\nThis is a youthful work by Ribera, and his earliest representation of the subject. Ribera studied the works of Caravaggio and these were to have a lasting influence on his style – here the naturalistic body of Christ and dramatic use of light are both inspired by him.\" - (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgallery.org.uk\/paintings\/jusepe-de-ribera-the-lamentation-over-the-dead-christ\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"National Gallery of Art London - The Lamentation over the Dead Christ\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eNational Gallery of Art, London\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jusepe De Ribera","offers":[{"title":"No Size Selected (Select a Size)","offer_id":50509791002867,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Replica Size (51\" x 71 1\/4\")","offer_id":50509791035635,"sku":null,"price":5269.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Signature Size (15 1\/8\" x 21 1\/8\")","offer_id":50509791068403,"sku":null,"price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Classic Size (18 1\/2\" x 25 7\/8\")","offer_id":50509791101171,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gallery Size (22 3\/4\" x 31 3\/4\")","offer_id":50509791133939,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Statement Size (29 1\/4\" x 40 7\/8\")","offer_id":50509791166707,"sku":null,"price":1995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Grand Size (35 1\/8\" x 49\")","offer_id":50509791199475,"sku":null,"price":2795.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Estate Size (41 1\/2\" x 58\")","offer_id":50509791232243,"sku":null,"price":3695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Museum Size (49 3\/4\" x 69 3\/8\")","offer_id":50509791265011,"sku":null,"price":4995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0827\/5738\/6483\/files\/TheLamentationovertheDeadChrist.jpg?v=1788837102","url":"https:\/\/commissionedpaintings.com\/products\/the-lamentation-over-the-dead-christ-ngal1104","provider":"Commissioned Paintings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
