"Descent from the Cross (left wing)" is a renowned oil on panel painting by Flemish artist Peter Paul Rubens, created between 1612 and 1614 as part of a larger triptych for the Cathedral of Our Lady in Antwerp. This left wing of the triptych, also known as a flanker, complements the central panel which depicts the dramatic and emotive scene of Christ being lowered from the cross, a masterpiece of Baroque art that showcases Rubens' mastery of dynamic composition and his ability to convey intense human emotion.

The left wing of the triptych features figures who are traditionally identified as the Virgin Mary and Saint John the Evangelist, who are often depicted in scenes of the Passion of Christ. In this work, Rubens' skillful use of chiaroscuro and his rich, vibrant color palette enhance the sense of depth and the three-dimensional quality of the figures. The characters are rendered with a profound sense of compassion and sorrow, capturing the mournful essence of the moment.

Rubens' work on the triptych, including the left wing, is noted for its innovative approach to the religious subject matter, as he brought a sense of movement and drama to the forefront, a hallmark of the Baroque period. The artist's ability to infuse his paintings with a sense of life and emotional resonance is particularly evident in the expressive faces and the dynamic drapery of the garments.

The "Descent from the Cross (left wing)" is not only a testament to Rubens' technical prowess and his deep understanding of human emotion but also serves as an integral part of the overall narrative of the triptych. The work remains an important piece of religious art and continues to be studied for its artistic significance and contribution to the development of Baroque painting in the Netherlands.
