Dirck van Baburen   ———

Another famous work in Centraal Museum’s collection is ‘The Entombment’ by Dirck van Baburen. Other works created during Baburen’s relatively short career include the altar piece for the Pietà chapel of the San Pietro in Montorio in Rome, which was inspired by Caravaggio’s Entombment. The latter was also created originally as an altar piece for a church in Rome, and is now part of the Vatican collection.
