解説

The scene appears to take place within a carved shrine, and the painting mimics 15th-century sculpted tabernacles. These were adorned with tracery and had figures carved almost in the round. Christ is lowered from the cross, with arms conspicuously stiffened in rigor mortis, towards the foreground figures of the Virgin and Saint John (left) and the Magdalen (right). Two holy women appear in the background, one with the crown of thorns, and the Magdalen's jar of ointment is prominent in the foreground, beside the skull of Adam whose burial place was said to be the site of the crucifixion.The richly dressed figures have the intense expressiveness that characterised this Cologne painter's style, their mental agitation showing in the gestures of their splay-fingered hands, as well as in the tears several of them have shed.
