Maria is sitting on her lap with the crowned head of Christ. She keeps her hands folded and has her head slightly aside. Christ's eyes are closed, the mouth is half open and the pierced hands are limp along the body. At his feet, Magdalena kneels, who holds the line blade with the left hand, while she wipes her tears with the right with a slip of the long narrow canvas, who hangs down from her turban. Maria is dressed in a robe with a round neck cut, the mantle overlooked over the head falls back, so that her headscarf can be clearly seen. Magdalena wears a wide skirt and a close jacket that closes in front of the chest and including the shirt visible.

Saint Andrew 1491 Andrea Bregno Italian This high-relief sculpture of Saint Andrew standing in a shell-topped niche was originally on an altar in Old Saint Peters, Rome. Tiberio Alfaranos 1571 plan of the basilica indicates where it was located inside the front wall.[1 A drawing made before the altar was dismantled in 1606 shows, above the altar, three saints in niches separated by finely decorated pilasters: Saint Paul to the left, Saint Peter in the center, and Saint Andrew at the right. In the drawing, Andrew turns his head slightly toward Peter and embraces with his left arm the cross on which he was martyred. Paul also twists his head toward Peter, and he holds his sword of martyrdom with his right hand —  his gestures are designed to mirror Andrews as the two flank the central saint. The reliefs of Peter and Paul —  without the pilasters —  are now in Boville Ernica, near Rome, where they were installed with Saint Andrew about 1612. Prominent on the structure that supported t
