Life Size Michelangelo Pieta Marble For Religious Church

In the statue of Michelangelo pieta, the dead Christ has a scar on his rib, without any painful expression on his face, lying between the knees of the Virgin Mary, with his right hand drooping, his head thrown back, his body as slender as a gymnast, waist Bent, Michelangelo pieta shows the weakness and powerlessness of death; the Virgin is young and beautiful, with a gentle image, dressed in a wide cloak and robe, holding the body of Christ with her right hand and extending her left hand slightly back, showing helpless pain; Looking down at her son’s body, she fell into deep sadness; Michelangelo pieta’s fine folds covered her thick shoulders, but the mask set off her beautiful face.

Michelangelo pieta’s work adopts a prudent pyramid-like composition. The wide robe of the Virgin not only shows the shape of the Virgin’s limbs but also subtly conceals the actual proportion of the Virgin’s body, solving the contradiction between the beauty of the composition and the actual proportion of the human body. The fragile and naked body of Christ Michelangelo pieta contrasts sharply with the heaviness of the drapery and the clear face of the Virgin, unified and varied. The production of the Michelangelo pieta statue has strong realistic skills, the author did not neglect any detail, and the Michelangelo pieta statue was carefully polished, and even velvet was used to rub it until the surface of the stone statue was completely smooth and shiny. All of this gives life to the stone, making the work extraordinarily dazzling. Michelangelo also engraved his name on the belt on the chest of the Virgin in the statue for the first time
