Christ with angel. Oil on canvas. 18th century. The painting depicts Christ, dressed, supported by the shoulders or back by an angel, both figures situated in an indeterminate space, accompanied by various symbols of the Passion (cross, chalice). The theme of the dead Christ supported by an angel has been treated several times in art (Antonello da Mesina in the 15th century, Fernando Yáñez de la Almedina, Alonso Cano, Jacob Backer the Elder, etc.), with the peculiarity that, following the text that inspired it, Jesus appears with the loincloth and not fully dressed as in the present work.
