The Pieta sculpture by Michelangelo shows the Virgin Mary holding the dead body of Christ after his crucifixion. This is one of the key events from the life of the Virgin Mary, known as the Seven Sorrows of Mary. Michelangelo portrayed the Virgin's body as larger than Christ's body so that she could support him in her lap. The Spoliarium painting by Juan Luna depicts the bloody aftermath of gladiatorial matches in the basement of the Roman Colosseum, where fallen gladiators are stripped of their armor. The first Catholic mass in the Philippines took place on Easter Sunday 1521 in Limasawa, officiated by Father Pedro de Valderrama.
