"The Descent from the Cross" is a notable 15th-century Flemish painting attributed to Colijn de Coter, a painter active in Brussels from the late 15th century until the early 16th century. This work is an exemplar of the Northern Renaissance style, which is characterized by its detailed realism, emotional intensity, and use of rich colors. The painting depicts the biblical scene of the removal of Christ's body from the cross following his crucifixion, a moment that has been a poignant subject in Christian art and has inspired a multitude of artworks throughout history.

Colijn de Coter's interpretation of "The Descent from the Cross" is distinguished by its dramatic composition and the intricate portrayal of the figures' expressions and garments. The painting is typically marked by the artist's attention to texture and pattern, as seen in the meticulously rendered clothing of the figures, which reflects the sumptuous fabrics that were a hallmark of Burgundian courtly culture. De Coter's work often exhibits a strong influence from the leading Flemish painter of the time, Rogier van der Weyden, whose own "Descent from the Cross" is considered a masterpiece of the period.

While the exact date of creation for de Coter's "The Descent from the Cross" is not definitively known, it is generally placed within the late 15th century, a time when Brussels was a vibrant center of artistic production.
