Pietà Hotspurs F

However, in practice works called a ''Pietà '' may include angels, the other figures usual in ''Lamentations'', and even donor portraits. An image consisting only of a dead Christ with angels is also called a Pietà , at least in German, where ''Engelpietà '' (literally "Angel Pietà ") is the term for what is usually called ''Dead Christ supported by angels'' in English. Several namesake images have merited a Pontifical decree of coronation, including the Pieta of Saint Peter's Basilica in Rome, in the Marienthal Basilica in France, the Franciscan church in Leuven, Belgium, at the Kamp-Bornhofen, Germany, and Our Lady of Charity in Cartagena, Spa ...
