UnknownPainting The Deposition of Christ 18th century1700s
1700s
About the Item
Oil on Canvas. Neapolitan school of the seventeenth-eighteenth century.
It is a traditional scene of Christ's deposition from the Cross, with his inert, pale body lowered into the arms of his mother Mary, who in turn is embraced and supported in her grief by the disciple John, and all around, participating in the mourning, two pious women and two disciples.
The scene is characterized by a diagonally descending linearity, following the body of Jesus, starting from the pole of the Cross raised to the left and ends with the woman crouching down to embrace Jesus' feet on the right.
All around, a stark, gray background emphasizes the drama and emptiness it creates.
Restored and re-tinted, the painting is presented inc ornice from the early 1900s.

- Penitent Magdalene and St. John the Baptist, oil on slate, early 17th centuryLocated in Milan, ITThe figure of the Magdalene emerges from the darkness, leaning to follow the curve of the stone support; it is depicted vaulted with an interrogative air towards the dark, as if in an attitude of listening, the left hand raised and the other leaning on the "memento mori" very shortened. In front of her a scourge and the jar of ointment. Painted en pendant, Saint John the Baptist is depicted as a young man, with a lamb at his feet, in his hand the processional cross with the banner "exception agnus dei", while with his right hand he draws from the source of water, recalling the episode that will see Jesus Christ baptized. In both paintings the figures stand out in a strong and incisive way thanks to the black that characterizes the slate plate on which they are depicted. Historical-critical analysis: We are faced with two examples of oil painting on stone. The beginnings of this particular technique are to be placed in the first half of the sixteenth century: after some fifteenth-century experiments it is with Sebastiano del Piombo that the genre takes hold in the sixteenth century. There were different types of support used, also linked to their availability: amethyst, marble in various colors, alabaster and blackboard. The reasons underlying this technical choice refer to Renaissance artistic theories: it is no coincidence that the painter who most often experimented with oil painting on marble...Category
