Michelangelo's sculpture depicting Mary holding the body of the crucified Christ is the best-known example of one of the [[Stock Poses|most popular poses in art]]. There is a whole class of artwork, referred to as "pietàs", that depict Mary (usually seated) holding the dead Jesus, going back to at least the early 14th century. It includes two other pieces by Michelangelo himself - one in the Cathedral Museum in [[Florence]] and known as the Deposition or Florentine Pietà, the other one one in the Castello Sforzesco in Milan and known as the Rondanini Pieta, as well as a third work in the Academia in Florence not generally attributed to Michelangelo today.
Line 7:
A subtrope of [[Faux Symbolism]]. May be mixed with [[Touch of the Monster]]. [[Super-Trope]] to [[Cradling Your Kill]] and [[Died in Your Arms Tonight]]. See also [[Background Halo]] for related subliminal symbolism. Compare [[Last Supper Steal]] and [[Crucified Hero Shot]] for other examples of frequently homaged Christ-iconography.
