# Deposition \(detail\) [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [WEYDEN, Rogier van der]() - Date: 1401-1450 - Technique: Oil on oak panel ## Commentary Mary has sunk to the ground, unconcious, but her head is supported so that it is still turned to us full face and held majestically erect. Surrounded by large areas of the three basic colours, red, blue, and green, the face is both emphasized within the picture as a whole and isolated by the white head-dress that frames sit. Although she is fainiting, the heavy sculptural shapes of the figure are not limp, aand the forehead is frowning. ## Related artworks - [Abegg Triptych]() - [Annunciation]() - [Annunciation Triptych]() - [Bladelin Triptych \(central panel\)]() - [Bladelin Triptych \(exterior\)]() - [Bladelin Triptych \(left wing\)]() - [Bladelin Triptych]() - [Bladelin Triptych \(right wing\)]() - [Braque Family Triptych \(central panel\)]() - [Braque Family Triptych \(closed\)]() - [Braque Family Triptych \(detail\)]() - [Braque Family Triptych \(left wing\)]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
