Joseph of Arimathea, a figure shrouded in mystery and reverence, is intricately woven into the tapestry of Christian history. Depicted in various artworks throughout the ages, his presence resonates with profound sorrow and unwavering devotion. In "Lamentation, " an oil on panel masterpiece, Joseph stands alongside other mourners as they grieve over the lifeless body of Christ. His face etched with anguish, he embodies the weight of loss and despair that fills the air. Another poignant portrayal is found in "Descent from the Cross, " where Joseph's hands cradle Jesus' limp form. The tender care he displays speaks volumes about his love for this fallen Messiah. "The burial of Christ" captures a pivotal moment as Joseph delicately places Jesus' body into its final resting place. This burin engraving on copper immortalizes his role as caretaker even after death has claimed their beloved Savior. On vellum folio 123r lies a depiction titled "Deposition from the Cross. " Here we witness Joseph's strength as he helps lower Jesus down from Calvary's heights, sharing in Mary's grief-stricken embrace. "Lamentation over dead Christ" showcases Joseph amidst a group mourning their departed Lord. His presence signifies not only compassion but also his status as one who provided a tomb for Christ's interment. A powerful composition named "Lamentation of Christ with St John, Mary Magdalene, Mary-Salome, Joseph of Arimathea and the Virgin" portrays him among those closest to Jesus during His final moments. Their collective sorrow unites them in this oil on canvas artwork that evokes deep emotion within viewers. Jean Mignon's "The Entombment" encapsulates Joseph’s pivotal role once again; meticulously arranging Jesus' lifeless body inside a sepulcher while conveying both solemnity and reverence through every brushstroke.
