Bewening 

Pieter van der Heyden's “Bewening” is an engraving that depicts the Lamentation of Christ. The scene is set at the foot of the tomb, where a crowd of figures mourns the death of Jesus. The composition features Christ's body laid out, with his mother Mary, John the Evangelist, and other female mourners surrounding him. Van der Heyden's use of chiaroscuro creates a dramatic and emotional effect, emphasizing the solemnity of the moment. The scene is visually crowded and somber, conveying the deep sorrow of the event.
