espanolLa Piedad y el planctus, aunque similares en su contenido, son dos escenas diferentes intercaladas entre el Descendimiento y el Santo Entierro. En la Piedad, el cuerpo inerte del crucificado descansa en los brazos de su Madre, que lo recibe con un dolor contenido. En el planctus o llanto sobre el cuerpo de Cristo muerto, su cuerpo se deposita sobre un sudario o sobre la piedra de la uncion y se disponen en torno, prorrumpiendo en lamentos y sollozos, la Virgen, San Juan, las santas mujeres, Jose de Arimatea y Nicodemo. La Piedad no aparece en los Evangelios, su origen esta en la literatura mistica bajomedieval, aunque desde el punto de vista plastico parece derivar del tema de la Virgen de la Humildad, donde se ha sustituido al Nino por el cuerpo inerte del Crucificado. Deriva de las lamentaciones ante el Hijo muerto, tema de origen bizantino que concentra la atencion en el drama de la Pasion y la contemplacion amorosa y doliente con sentido realista y conmovedor. EnglishIn spite of being similar in their content, the Pieta and the planctus constitute two different scenes inserted between the Descent from the Cross and the Burial of Jesus. In the Pieta, Christ’s inert body lies in His Mother’s arms, who receives Him with contained pain. In the planctus or the Lamentation over the Dead Christ, His body is either deposited on a napkin or laid on the Stone of the Unction (or Anointing). Surrounding Jesus’ body, we find the mournful group of the Virgin, Saint John, the Myrrh-bearing Women, Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus. The Pieta is not included in the Gospels. Its origin is in late medieval mystical literature. However, from an artistic point of view, the Pieta develops from the subject of the Virgin of Humility, having replaced the Child Jesus with Christ’s lifeless body. Moreover, the Pieta also derives from the abovementioned Lamentation over the Dead Christ, a Byzantine subject which focuses the attention on the Passion’s drama and the loving and painful contemplation, in a realistic and moving way.
