-- Catholic, Blessed Virgin Mary, Theotokos, Jesus, Michelangelo, Vatican, Easter, Good Friday, Crucifixion, Passion.

Pietà, a monumental marble sculpture by Renaissance artist Michelangelo depicting Mary cradling the body of Jesus after he has been removed from the cross. The work was commissioned by a French Cardinal, Jean de Bilhères Lagraulas, for his funerary monument in Old St. Peter’s Basilica (razed in the early 16th century) in Vatican City. It was eventually moved to its current location in the new St. Peter’s Basilica, Vatican City, where it became one of the most famous sculptures in the world. Completed in 1498, the work continues to draw pilgrims for its moving depiction of the Virgin quietly mourning the death of her son..
