Rogier van der Weyden, Prado Deposition, 1435
Note that the pose of the Virgin Mary (in blue) echoes the pose of Jesus. In the century when this was made, Christian's emphasized the idea that in her heart and mind, the Virgin Mary suffered great anguish along with Jesus, even though she was not physically crucified.
For this picture, you may choose to write an Ekphrasis, or point out some pairs of Antitheses in the artwork, or identify a metaphor.
