EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Raphael's masterpiece, "The Deposition" which was completed in 1507. Painted with oil on panel, this monumental artwork measures an impressive 184x176 cm and is currently housed in the Galleria Borghese in Rome, Italy. Also known as "The Entombment" this altarpiece was created to commemorate Grifonetto Baglioni in the family chapel located at San Francesco al Prato in Tuscany. It belongs to the High Renaissance period and depicts a poignant biblical scene from the New Testament. In this emotionally charged composition, we witness the sorrowful moment of Christ's deposition from the cross. The landscape surrounding Mount Calvary serves as a backdrop for mourning figures such as Mary Magdalene and Saint John who carry Jesus' lifeless body towards his burial site. Raphael's meticulous attention to detail is evident through his portrayal of wounds and blood, emphasizing the physical suffering endured by Christ during his crucifixion. This painting evokes profound grief and captures intense emotions that resonate with viewers across time. "The Deposition" exemplifies Raphael's mastery of religious art while showcasing his ability to convey human emotion through color and composition.
