<hr />
<div>[[Image:Pieta.jpg|right|thumb|One of the finest examples of a statue.]]<br />
'''Pieta''' is a representation of the [[Virgin Mary]] cradling the crucified body of her son, [[Jesus Christ]], usually on her lap. It has been a favorite with [[sculptor]]s and [[artist]]s since the [[Middle Ages]], but was especially favored during the [[Renaissance]].<br />
<br />
The most well-known is this striking, life-size [[sculpture]] by [[Renaissance]] [[artist]] [[Michelangelo]]. This is on display in [[St. Peter's Basilica]]. The sculpture was commissioned in 1498 for the [[cardinal]] [[Jean de Billheres]], and was completed in 1499. It is considered Michelangelo's greatest work, and is the only piece he signed.<br />
