Pietà c. 1480

This anonymous woodcut, titled "Pietà" from around 1480, depicts the Virgin Mary mourning over the body of Jesus Christ. The print is notable for its simplified, almost abstract style, a characteristic of early woodcuts. The dark outlines and bold patterns highlight the figures, emphasizing the emotional impact of the scene. The use of woodcut printing, a technique popular in the 15th century, allowed for the mass reproduction of religious imagery.
