The Burial of Christ

Late XVI century. Oil on slate.
Room 043

The Bassanos’s studio specialized in the serial production of small works for private devotion based on the great composition by the head of the family, Jacopo. The Burial of Christ, painted on slate, is an example of this type. The paint losses are due to the surface of the slate being excessively polished before painting.
