EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jean Goujon's masterpiece, "The Lamentation or, Our Lady of Pity" created between 1544-45. The stone relief measures an impressive 67.3x182 cm and is housed in the prestigious Louvre Museum in Paris, France. "The Lamentation" depicts a poignant scene known as the Deploration of Christ or Our Lady of Pity. It portrays the sorrowful moment after Jesus' crucifixion when his lifeless body is being mourned by his loved ones. The sculpture beautifully captures the raw emotions of grief and sadness through its intricate details. In this heart-wrenching image, we witness Virgin Mary shedding tears while cradling her son's lifeless body on her lap. Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus stand beside them, also overcome with mourning. The descent from the cross is depicted with great skill and precision, showcasing Goujon's mastery over stone carving during the Renaissance period. As we gaze upon this powerful artwork captured by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of the universal themes it represents - loss, compassion, and human vulnerability in times of tragedy. Through their expressions and gestures frozen in time, these figures evoke a deep sense of empathy within us. "The Lamentation or Our Lady of Pity" serves as a timeless reminder that even amidst immense sorrow, there is beauty to be found in shared grief and solace offered by loved ones. This photograph preserves Goujon
