Christ with Joseph of Arimathea, c. 1525. Creator: Giovanni Girolamo Savoldo (Italian, c
Christ with Joseph of Arimathea, c. 1525. After the Crucifixion, Joseph of Arimathea obtained permission to bury Christs body in Josephs own tomb. Aside from an amorphous, cloudy sky, Savoldo eliminated the background entirely and reduced the narrative to two monumental figures, brought to the front of the picture plane. These qualities surely had a great impact on Caravaggio, who initially trained in Northern Italy, where Savoldo spent his career. This work originally hung over a large altarpiece, which explains the unusual perspective, the panels horizontal shape, and the figures position above the viewer
