The standard subject in Christian art depicting Mary holding her son Jesus after he has been taken down from the cross is called the "Pietà." This powerful image symbolizes Mary's mourning and compassion as she cradles the lifeless body of Christ, highlighting themes of grief and sacrifice. The most famous representation of the Pietà is Michelangelo's sculpture located in St. Peter's Basilica in Vatican City.
