"Entombment" (1320-25) is a fresco attributed to the Italian painter Giotto di Bondone, a pivotal figure in the pre-Renaissance period who is renowned for his contributions to the development of realistic representation in Western art. This work is part of a series of frescoes that adorn the interior of the Scrovegni Chapel in Padua, Italy, an ensemble that is considered one of Giotto's masterpieces and a milestone in the evolution of European painting.

The "Entombment" fresco, also known as "The Lamentation," depicts the biblical scene of Christ's burial after his crucifixion, a common subject in Christian art that emphasizes human emotion and divine sacrifice. Giotto's interpretation is particularly noted for its emotional intensity and the innovative use of space and perspective, which convey a sense of depth and three-dimensionality unprecedented for its time.

In the composition, the figures are arranged in a semi-circular form around the lifeless body of Christ, with the Virgin Mary prominently displayed in a pose of profound grief. The fresco is remarkable for its expressive figures that communicate a palpable sense of sorrow and loss, as well as for the inclusion of angels above, who mirror the mourning of the figures below.

Giotto's work on the "Entombment" is characterized by a break from the stylized and symbolic art of the Byzantine tradition, moving towards a more naturalistic and human-centered approach. His use of chiaroscuro, or the contrast between light and dark, to model the figures in a realistic manner, along with the emotional expressions and interactions of the characters, mark a significant departure from the flat and static representations of earlier medieval art.

The "Entombment" is not only a testament to Giotto's artistic genius but also a reflection of the cultural and spiritual shifts occurring in the 14th century, as Europe moved towards the Renaissance. The fresco continues to be studied and admired for its artistic innovation and its profound impact on the trajectory of Western art.
