Beschreibung
Spanish school of the 16th century.
"Pietà".
Wood carving.
Measurements: 24 x 25 x 13,5 cm.
This work carved in wood, polychrome, represents the theme of the Pietà: the Virgin seated with the dead Christ in her lap, a theme of deep dramatism not only because of the theme itself, but also because its composition evokes the images of the Virgin with the Child Jesus in her lap. It is based on an engraving by Domenico Custos on a relief by Michelangelo.
Iconographically, the Pietà is a theme that has been repeated many times in the history of art, especially from the Renaissance onwards. It is an image taken from the Passion, featuring a sorrowing Virgin Mary holding the dead body of her son. In fact, it is a plastic representation of Mary's pain in the face of the truth of her dead son, and in fact from this theme will derive the representations of the Dolorosa, in which only the Virgin appears. The iconography of the Pietà arises from a gradual evolution of five centuries and, according to Panofsky, derives from the theme of the Byzantine Threnos, the lamentation of the Virgin over the dead body of Jesus, as well as from the Virgin of Humility. The first artists to see the possibilities of this theme were German sculptors, the first surviving example being found in the city of Coburg, a piece from around 1320. Over time the iconography spread throughout Europe, and by the 17th century, after the Counter-Reformation, it had become one of the most important themes in devotional painting.
