In honor of 450 anniversary of the Brotherhood of Sorrows , I dedicate this entry. is a beautiful and magnificent sculpture polychrome cedarwood to dress, made by the artist Juan de Mesa and Velasco between 1626 and 1627.
mature-faced Mary, is sitting and on his legs is the image of Christ, dead. She appears with her head tilted to the left seeking the face of his son, has 8 crystal tears and false eyelashes, hair has the image carved in wood finishing in the neck like a bow, his eyes are carved into the wood and painted, the mouth is slightly open allowing us to see your teeth with your left hand we can see as holding the head of his son and the right places it on the belly of it. 
The stunning image of Christ, lies in the lap of her mother after having fallen from the cross, the image has a large study anatomy of the human body, his face still appears contorted by the pain suffered in martitio, his eyes are also carved in wood and painted, mouth ajar showing us the teeth and tongue, the head is turned to the left arm appears stiff right is extended to the shoulder his mother, and the left appears fallen to the ground. As a curiosity to say that both pictures the Virgin is canonically crowned since 1987, commenting that the image does not have dedicated cristÃfera for years both images procession under canopy and finally say that it is not known whether the position in which both images show is the original or is it another, and that throughout history has had several positions.
