Michelangelo masterpiece (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pieta

'michelangelo masterpiece' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for pieta that I've seen before include "Devotional painting" , "Statue of Mary and Jesus after the Crucifixion" , "Sculpture of Mary with Christ's body" , "Religious depiction" , "Sculpture or painting of Mary praying over body of Jesus" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, The New York Times and the Penny Press.
