The Lamentation over Christ with a Carmelite Monk
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant and deeply moving painting by Giovanni Battista Cima da Conegliano. Created around 1510, this masterpiece captures the heart-wrenching scene of Jesus' crucifixion and the profound grief that envelops his followers. At the center of the composition lies Christ's lifeless body, tenderly cradled by St. Mary Magdalene, whose sorrowful expression mirrors her immense loss. The Virgin Mary, known as Stella Maris or Mother of God, stands beside them in anguish, her eyes filled with tears. A Carmelite monk kneels nearby, his hands clasped in prayer as he witnesses this tragic moment. The painting's rich colors and meticulous details transport us to Jerusalem's hilltop Calvary where this biblical event took place. In the background, we see buildings that evoke the ancient cityscape while emphasizing the timeless nature of Christ's sacrifice. Cima da Conegliano masterfully conveys both individual grief and collective mourning through his portrayal of various figures - men and women alike - who are united in their shared love for Jesus. This work exemplifies Renaissance art at its finest: emotionally charged yet harmonious in its composition. Housed within the esteemed State A Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts in Moscow, this print serves as a testament to Cima da Conegliano's artistic prowess and continues to inspire viewers with its depiction of faith, devotion, and human vulnerability amidst tragedy.
