Pietà is a painting by the Flemish artist Rogier van der Weyden dating from about 1441 held in the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium Brussels. There are number of workshop versions and copies notably in the National Gallery London in the Prado Madrid and in the Manzoni Collection Naples. Infra-red and X-radiograph evidence suggest that the Brussels version was painted by van der Weyden himself not necessarily excluding the help of workshop assistants.
