Notes This painting depicts the scene after Christ's descent from the cross and before his burial. The Virgin Mary bends over Christ's body while Mary Magdalene kneels at his feet. Joseph of Arimathea, Nicodemus and the mourning women complete the circle of the mourners. The seal of the noble Colonna family of Rome is stamped on the back of the painting. The work is listed in the 1783 inventory of art treasures in the Colonna palace outside Rome. From 1605 to 1606, Rubens' brother Filippo was secretary and librarian to Cardinal Ascanio Colonna (1559-1608), and it is likely that the cardinal commissioned this painting. It was later sold to the painter Giuseppe Cades (1750 - 1799), whose signed declaration of ownership remains on the back.
