"Deposition from the Cross" (1525) is a renowned oil painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Antonio Allegri da Correggio, commonly known as Correggio. This work is celebrated for its dramatic representation of the biblical scene where Jesus Christ is taken down from the cross following his crucifixion, a moment that has been a poignant subject for many artists throughout history. Correggio's interpretation is particularly noted for its emotional intensity and the masterful use of chiaroscuro, a technique that employs strong contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume in modeling three-dimensional objects and figures.

The painting measures 158.5 cm × 184 cm (62.4 in × 72.4 in) and is housed in the Galleria Nazionale of Parma, Italy. It was commissioned by the Confraternity of Saint John the Evangelist for their church in Parma. Correggio's "Deposition from the Cross" is a prime example of his ability to convey complex human emotions and his skill in creating a sense of movement through the composition's dynamic figures. The work is characterized by its sophisticated composition and the tender expressions of the figures surrounding Christ, which include the Virgin Mary, who is depicted in a swoon, Saint John the Evangelist, Mary Magdalene, and other mourners.

The painting's influence extends beyond its immediate impact on the viewer; it is considered a significant contribution to the Mannerist movement that followed the High Renaissance, foreshadowing the emotional intensity and dynamic compositions that would become hallmarks of that period. Correggio's use of perspective and foreshortening in this work also demonstrates his innovative approach to spatial illusionism, which would inspire future generations of artists.

"Deposition from the Cross" remains a testament to Correggio's mastery of the human form, his understanding of light and shadow, and his ability to capture the pathos of a pivotal moment in Christian narrative. It stands as a key work in the oeuvre of one of the most important artists of the Italian Renaissance and continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
