"Deposition from the Cross," also known as "Deposition 2," is a seminal work by the Italian Mannerist painter Jacopo Carucci, more commonly known as Pontormo. Created between 1528 and 1529, this altarpiece is housed in the Capponi Chapel of the church of Santa Felicita in Florence, Italy. The painting is renowned for its vivid colors, emotional intensity, and departure from the balanced compositions typical of the High Renaissance, marking a significant shift towards the Mannerist style.

Pontormo's "Deposition" is notable for its complex composition and the dynamic arrangement of figures, which creates a sense of movement and emotional turmoil. The painting depicts the moment when Christ's body is being lowered from the cross, surrounded by a group of mourners. Unlike traditional depictions of the Deposition, Pontormo's version eschews a clear spatial setting, instead presenting the figures against an ambiguous, almost ethereal background. This lack of a defined spatial context heightens the emotional impact of the scene, drawing the viewer's focus to the expressions and gestures of the figures.

The use of color in "Deposition" is particularly striking. Pontormo employs a palette of soft, almost pastel hues, which contrasts with the somber subject matter. The figures are elongated and twisted, their poses conveying a sense of anguish and despair. The central figure of Christ is rendered with a delicate, almost fragile quality, emphasizing his humanity and suffering.

Pontormo's innovative approach in "Deposition" reflects the broader artistic trends of the Mannerist movement, characterized by a departure from the harmonious proportions and balanced compositions of the Renaissance. The painting's emotional intensity, unconventional composition, and vibrant color scheme have made it a subject of extensive scholarly analysis and a key example of Mannerist art.
