Meet Luis de Morales, a 16th-century Spanish painter so good at religious art that people nicknamed him 'El Divino' (The Divine One). In this heartbreaking scene, he paints the dead Christ cradled by his mother Mary, who wears a striking green veil. The pitch-black background acts like a spotlight, forcing you to focus entirely on the pale, porcelain-like skin of the figures and their raw, quiet grief. It's a masterclass in emotional intensity, making a 500-year-old funeral feel like it's happening right in front of you.
