The Entombment 1746 - 1755

"The Entombment", an anonymous 18th-century painting, depicts the sorrowful scene of Christ being lowered into the tomb. The artwork, located in SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, shows a group of figures surrounding Christ, with a focus on the strong emotions conveyed through their poses and expressions. The scene takes place in a rocky landscape, adding to the somber mood of the piece. This Baroque-style painting, measuring 107.5 cm x 73.5 cm, is a powerful testament to the religious devotion of the time.
