In Pietà, Bouguereau renders the Virgin cradling Christ with serene tenderness, surrounded by mournful angels whose delicate forms echo the gentle curves of her robes. Soft, muted tones of ivory, rose, and dusky blue suffuse the composition, enhancing the quiet reverence and sorrow of the scene. Every fold of fabric, every subtle shift of light across flesh, is rendered with Bouguereau’s meticulous realism, transforming this classical religious subject into an intimate and deeply human vision of grief and devotion.

William-Adolphe Bouguereau (1825–1905) was a French Academic painter, renowned for his flawless technique, classical compositions, and idealized human figures. His works often focused on mythological, religious, and allegorical themes, blending emotional depth with meticulous craftsmanship.
