This is antique color reproduction of late Medieval woodcut. This would be a wonderful Easter gift, especially after it was framed. The image shows the entombment or burial of Jesus prior to his body being placed into the tomb. With the cross in the background, the scene is of two disciples lowering Jesus' body into a casket, while Mary flanked by two other women and man gaze on him. On the bottom is a quote hotsell in Latin from the Gospel of Mark, Chapter 15, verse 47: Maria autem Magdalene et Maria Ioseph aspiciebant ubi poneretur, which translates to: And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.
The illustration is on hand-made paper with chain lines. It is attached on the left side to a larger piece of paper that measures about 12 by 9 inches. I'm not sure if it is hand-colored or is a color woodcut.
