The Entombment

Lucas Cranach der Ältere, legkésőbb 1509

This drawing depicts a group of individuals surrounding a central figure in a tomb-like setting. The scene is highly detailed, showing ornate robes, facial expressions, and interactions between the figures. There is intricate foliage in the background, and a tree with a human-like trunk adds an otherworldly touch. The shading and cross-hatching techniques suggest attention to texture and depth. The style is reminiscent of Renaissance woodcuts and engravings, possibly influenced by artists like Albrecht Dürer.
