| Description |  |
The Three Maries weep over Christ's crucified body. Three crosses are visible on the distant mountain of Golgotha. The crown of thorns and the dice thrown by the soldiers for Christ's clothing lie in the foreground. The anatomical distortions and the crude painting style make this representation of physical suffering and grief extremely disturbing.
