Study for a Pietà Italy, 17th century Oil on canvas, maroufle This painting shows the Virgin Mary supporting the lifeless body of Christ, surrounded by cherubs. The thinly applied paint, visible brushstrokes and open handling suggest that this was a preparatory oil sketch (bozzetto) for a larger altarpiece. Dimensions: 47.5 x 35 cm. Overall in good condition, some flaking to the sides of the painting.
