"Christ and the Maries: The Entombment" (1854) is a significant religious painting by the Dutch-French artist Ary Scheffer, known for his Romantic works that often explored religious and spiritual themes. The painting depicts the poignant biblical scene of the entombment of Jesus Christ, focusing on the emotional response of the Virgin Mary and the other Marys present at the event. Scheffer's portrayal is characterized by its dramatic use of light and shadow, which serves to enhance the somber mood and the spiritual intensity of the moment.

In this work, Scheffer continues his exploration of Christian iconography, a subject that he returned to throughout his career, reflecting the 19th-century interest in religious and historical subjects. The painting is notable for its expressive figures and the artist's attention to detail, which combine to evoke a deep sense of pathos. Scheffer's treatment of the subject matter is both traditional and innovative, as he blends classical composition with a Romantic sensibility that emphasizes the emotional and human aspects of the scene.

"Christ and the Maries: The Entombment" is part of Scheffer's broader oeuvre, which includes other religious works such as "The Temptation of Christ" (1854) and "Christ Weeping Over Jerusalem" (1851). These paintings reflect the artist's engagement with theological themes and his desire to convey spiritual narratives through the medium of paint. As with many of Scheffer's paintings, "Christ and the Maries: The Entombment" would have resonated with contemporary audiences who were drawn to the emotive power of religious art during a period of social and political change.

The painting is an example of Scheffer's mature style, which is marked by a refined use of color and a mastery of chiaroscuro. It contributes to the understanding of mid-19th-century European art, particularly in the context of the Romantic movement and its impact on religious painting. Today, the work is appreciated not only for its artistic qualities but also for its historical significance as a representation of 19th-century religious sentiment and artistic expression.
