Mourning mother by Titian Vecellio

The paintings depicting the grieving Virgin were popular religious images.

This grieving mother with outstretched hands was painted in 1553-54, as a copy of the detail of the painting “Xie Man”, which Titian painted for the emperor in 1548. She was commissioned by Maria of Hungary, the eldest sister of Emperor Charles V.
