CrusifixionPrimo Santo Monte, XIII secolo Created: between 1290 and 1310
Crucifixion
In a golden background, outside the walls of Jerusalem a crowded
Crucificion is depicted. The scene is characterized by intense emotional
feelings and a dramatic atmosphere, lively moving figures, a large
number of horsemen, and a particular emphasis to Mary Magdalene,
kneeling at the base of the Cross. These elements are found in works of
Gothic art. Other elements, more or less important, come from the
Byzantine painting tradition, like the golden background and the two old
men talking to each other at the right bottom of the scene. The icon is
attributed to the Venetian painter of the mid-14th c. Paolo Veneziano
or to his workshop.
Measurement: 109 x 60,5 cm
Exhibit Number: ΒΧΜ 01097
