German-Italian master from the 16th century (imitator of Rogier van der Weyden), Picture from the Cross. The foreground depicts Jesus taken down from the cross with his eyes closed and Mary kneeling before him in a dark blue cloak and white headdress. She looks lovingly at her son and embraces Him with her right hand. In the back on the right stands Joseph of Arimathea, supporting the body, and on the left St. John the Evangelist. In the background, the view stretches into the distance, revealing parts of the cross and a ladder. The scene is depicted mainly in primary colors.
Board dimensions: 70 x 53 cm; framed painting, carved frame, gilded 18th century (dimensions with frame: 79.5 x 64 cm).
Painting on display at the auction of paintings by old masters of the Hampel auction house in Munich (Ale Meister, part II, 27.06.2019, lot No. 770).
It is believed that there are many versions of this design, all of which probably derive from a lost prototype from the 1540s by Rogier van der Weyden.
