This relief was part of an altarpiece that stood on or behind the altar in a Christian church. It represents Christ's mother, Mary Magdalene and St John lamenting at the foot of the Cross on which Christ is being crucified. The damaged piece was restored by the sculptor-restorer Otto Entres of Munich in about 1850 to 1860. He probably added the left and right sides and most of the colours.
The relief was probably made in the town of Halle, in the German province of Saxony, under the influence of the master sculptor Tilman Riemenschneider (died 1531).
