At the Foot of the Cross

For Good Friday, Anna Magnusson explores the intense emotion of Michelangelo’s Pietà, including how a woman in the deep pain of losing a son responded to its tender human story.

One of the most enduring images of Jesus is Michelangelo’s ‘Pietà’ in St Peter’s, Rome. The intense sorrow it expresses is inescapable and seems to touch everyone, religious or not.

For Good Friday morning, Anna Magnusson explores the power of the Pietà, and also hears how a woman in the terrible pain of losing a son responded to the tender human story it tells.
