Painting that bears a wooden frame. Depicted a woman who has put her dead son on her knees. The woman carries a black long garment and a white headscarf. Her facial expression shows feelings of anguish and pain. The young man wears short trousers and a white shirt, open to the chest and revealing wounds on the sternum. The composition of the project is strongly reminiscent of the characteristic attitude of Pieta in the project
