Pieta | William-Adolphe Bouguereau | 1876

This painting, titled "Pietà," was created by William-Adolphe Bouguereau in 1876. It depicts the Virgin Mary cradling the lifeless body of Jesus Christ after his crucifixion, a poignant moment of mourning and sorrow. Mary is surrounded by grieving angels, their faces reflecting deep sadness. The composition is both serene and emotionally charged, with the figures rendered in Bouguereau's characteristic smooth and realistic style. The gold halos around Mary and Jesus emphasize their sanctity, while the careful use of light and shadow enhances the somber atmosphere of the scene, focusing attention on the tender interaction between mother and son.
