About Artwork: (About 1604) "This is perhaps the most poignant image in the National Gallery’s collection of the pietà – the lamentation over the dead Christ following his crucifixion. It was a subject to which Annibale Carracci returned frequently, especially during the last decade of his life. Here, the limp and lifeless body of Christ lies in the lap of his mother, the Virgin Mary. A distraught Mary Magdalene kneels on the right, hands raised and mouth open in a wail of anguish. At the back an older woman in dark green reaches out towards the fainting Virgin, whose weight is supported by a fair-haired young woman. The composition is built on strong diagonals and our eye is guided around the picture by colour, gaze and expression. Annibale has skilfully concentrated our attention on each figure and her emotional response in turn. His ability to paint different emotions is exactly what appealed to later admirers of this painting, which brilliantly combines formal classicism with intense human sentiment." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
