Resting of the Crucified One.
"O how sad and sore distressed was that Mother, highly blest, of the sole-begotten One. She beheld her tender Child, Saw Him hang in desolation, Till His spirit forth He sent. Make me feel as thou hast felt; make my soul to glow and melt with the love of Christ my Lord." - verses from the Sequence hymn for Our Lady of Sorrows. This Deposition is in the church of Sta Maria dell'Anima in Rome, and it was painted by Francesco Salviati, c.1560.
