The Lamentation

Frühe Holzschnitte, kb. 1460

The image shows four figures: three standing and one reclining on a light blue surface. The reclining figure is partially clothed and has a crown of thorns on their head. The standing figures have halos above their heads, with distinct facial features and hairstyles. One is leaning over the reclining figure, one has curly hair and wears a robe, and the other wears a blue garment with tied back hair. All are dressed in earthy-toned robes. In the background is a cross-like structure, and the composition is framed with a border against a muted tan background.
