"Lamentation over the Dead Christ" (1436) is a renowned fresco by the Early Renaissance Italian painter Fra Angelico, also known as Guido di Pietro. This work is one of the many religious frescoes created by the artist, who was known for his devout spirituality and the serene and pious nature of his art. The fresco is located in the San Marco Convent in Florence, Italy, which houses a significant collection of Fra Angelico's works, many of which adorn the walls of the monks' cells and public spaces within the convent.

The "Lamentation over the Dead Christ" depicts a traditional Christian scene of mourning, capturing the moment after the Crucifixion when Christ's body has been taken down from the cross and is being lamented by his followers. The composition typically includes the Virgin Mary, Saint John the Evangelist, and other figures from the New Testament, who express grief and despair at the death of Jesus. Fra Angelico's interpretation of this poignant scene is noted for its emotional depth and the use of color and light to enhance the spiritual impact of the image.

In the fresco, the figures are arranged in a harmonious composition, with attention to the expressions of sorrow and devotion on their faces. The artist's mastery of fresco technique is evident in the delicate rendering of the figures and the landscape, as well as in the handling of perspective, which was a relatively new development in art at the time. Fra Angelico's work is characterized by its simplicity and clarity, as well as its embodiment of the ideals of the Dominican order to which he belonged, emphasizing meditation and contemplation.

The "Lamentation over the Dead Christ" is considered an important example of Fra Angelico's artistry and of the Early Renaissance style.
