Ros Family Epitaph

c. 1550
Sandstone, polychromed, 144 x 104 cm
Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam

This epitaph was made for the church of Wageningen. It shows God the Father presenting his suffering son to the faithful, with the dove of the Holy Ghost above his head. Those pleading for mercy are the members of the Ros family. The epitaph was severely damaged during the iconoclast in 1578.
