"The Entombment (b. 18; L., Holl. 28)" is a significant engraving by the renowned German artist Martin Schongauer, who was active during the late 15th century. Schongauer, born around 1448 and passing in 1491, is celebrated for his contributions to the art of engraving, a medium in which he achieved remarkable technical proficiency and expressive depth. His works are noted for their intricate detail, dynamic compositions, and emotional intensity, characteristics that are vividly exemplified in "The Entombment."

This particular engraving depicts the somber and poignant moment of Christ's entombment following his crucifixion. Schongauer's interpretation of this biblical scene is marked by its meticulous attention to detail and the profound sense of sorrow conveyed through the figures' expressions and gestures. The composition is carefully arranged to draw the viewer's eye towards the central figure of Christ, whose lifeless body is being tenderly lowered into the tomb by his followers. The surrounding figures, including the Virgin Mary, St. John, and other mourners, are rendered with a high degree of realism and emotional depth, reflecting Schongauer's skill in capturing human emotion and narrative drama.

"The Entombment" is also notable for its technical execution. Schongauer's mastery of the engraving technique is evident in the fine lines and intricate textures that define the figures and their surroundings. The use of light and shadow enhances the three-dimensionality of the scene, creating a sense of depth and volume that draws the viewer into the composition. This work exemplifies the high level of craftsmanship and artistic innovation that Schongauer brought to the medium of engraving, influencing subsequent generations of artists, including Albrecht Dürer.

As with many of Schongauer's works, "The Entombment" was widely circulated and admired during his lifetime and beyond, contributing to his enduring legacy as one of the foremost engravers of the Northern Renaissance. The engraving remains an important example of late Gothic art, reflecting the devotional and artistic sensibilities of the period.
