''Deposizione'' (also known as ''The Entombment of Christ'') is a renowned painting by the Italian Baroque master Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, created circa 1602–1604. This masterpiece is considered one of Caravaggio's pivotal works, showcasing his dramatic use of chiaroscuro and his profound influence on the Baroque style of painting. The artwork depicts the biblical scene of the entombment of Christ, a moment captured from the Gospel accounts of Jesus Christ's burial after his crucifixion.

The painting is notable for its realistic representation of human emotions and the physicality of the figures, a hallmark of Caravaggio's approach to religious subjects. In ''Deposizione'', Caravaggio eschews the idealized figures common in the art of the Renaissance, instead presenting a group of figures that convey a palpable sense of grief and exertion as they carry Christ's body to its tomb. The composition is tightly framed, with the figures almost spilling out of the picture space, enhancing the sense of immediacy and intimacy.

Caravaggio's use of light is particularly striking in this work, with the source of illumination coming from outside the painting, focusing on the body of Christ and the faces of the mourners, creating a strong contrast between the stark shadows and the highlighted areas. This technique not only adds to the drama of the scene but also serves to guide the viewer's eye through the composition.

Originally commissioned for the altar of the Chiesa Nuova in Rome, the painting now resides in the Vatican Museums, where it continues to be an object of admiration and study. ''Deposizione'' is often cited as a quintessential example of Caravaggio's impact on the development of Western art, particularly in its emotional power and its influence on the Baroque painters who followed.
