DEPOSITION FROM THE CROSS BY VAN DER WEYDEN

2.25

The great Deposition from the Cross, painted around 1440 by Rogier van der Weyden, is impressive for the monumental size of its figures and the glittering richness of its colors. You might notice that unlike the usual Deposition scenes, this one is set in a fairly small area (even if on grass), which makes it more intimate and dramatic. Also note how effective the contrast between the blue robe of the Madonna is, who slips to the ground unconscious, and the elaborate habit of Joseph of Arimathea on the right with gold motif designs.
