About the Item
Christ Crucified (Christus Patiens) with God the Father, the Virgin and St. John
In the manner of 14th century Tuscan painting
Tempera on panel
Height: 150 cm
Width: 99 cm
Performed non-invasive conservation restoration (photo of the work before intervention in detail)
We present this precious antique crucified Christ, with God the Father blessing on the cymatium, the grieving Madonna and St. John in the side terminations; the latter, weeping, are the figures mentioned in the gospels, present at the foot of the cross and who witnessed the sacrifice of Jesus, thus having an important value of testimony and participation.
The work, a tempera on panel, is executed in the manner of 14th-century Tuscan painting, following its standards of quality and style.
The first painted crosses, produced in Tuscany and Umbria in the 12th century, became the symbol of Christ's sacrifice and thus an emblem of Christianity. While in this first phase the typology of Christ was that of the Christus Triumphans, with the aspect triumphant over death, from the middle of the 13th century, with the preaching of Saint Francis of Assisi, who favoured the human aspect of Christ, the model of the Christus Pathiens was instead preferred.
A key work of this genre is Giotto's crucifix in Santa Maria Novella in Florence, not only for its quality, but also for the depth of its meanings and symbolic values, becoming a reference model for the painting of many followers.
Giotto renounces the beauty ennobled by the slender and geometrically perfect forms of the body (because they are divine) but improbable, in order to propose the body of an ordinary man, really nailed to the cross abandoned with all his weight physically visible.
The painter focuses on the realistic aspects of his condition, such as the colour of the flesh, the blood, the ribs pressing against the skin, the stretched tendons of the arms, the head leaning forward and the sense of exhaustion of the body.
As for the cross proposed here, we see a painting rendered according to the fourteenth-century canons introduced by Giotto: Christ has a recumbent head and great attention is given to the anatomical description of the body. It is made of shaped planks of soft wood; the painting is executed in tempera, but reveals a refined quality in the dosage of colours and chiaroscuro passages.
The halo, as well as the background of the terminal figures, is made with a gold background, also traditional. In our case, metal decorations are applied to the outline of the halo, a detail that does not belong to the Italian tradition, but seems to belong to the French Gothic taste.

By Tiziano Vecellio (Pieve di Cadore 1490 - Venice 1576)
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
The Resurrection of Christ
Follower of Tiziano Vecellio (Pieve di Cadore 1490 - Venice 1576)
Venetian school of the late 16th/early 17th century
Oil on canvas
108 x 78 cm. - Framed 129 x 99 cm.
This jewel of the Venetian school, a work executed between the 16th and 17th centuries by a Venetian artist, illustrates the episode of the Resurrection of Christ: as reported in the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 28:1-7) the event is accompanied by an explosion of light and glow, with the figure of Christ rising into the sky.
Christ's face, serene and victorious, looks up towards the Light and the Infinite, in contrast to his majestic figure, here constructed with the appearance of a classical sculpture, contrasted by an intensely luminous background.
The Risen One firmly holds in His hand the banner (white with a red cross) of the Resurrection, also known as the flag of St. George, which iconographically represents His victory over death, while raising His right hand in a blessing act. With his feet he crushes a snake and a skull, a sign of Christ's triumph over sin and death.
The painting belongs to the Venetian school and presents clear reminiscences with the works of Titian Vecellio...

Crucified Christ, Sorrowful Crucifix. Carved and polychrome wood.
Located in Madrid, ES
Crucified Christ, Sorrowful Crucifix. Carved and polychrome wood. Possibly southern German school, 15th century.
Polychrome and gilded wood carving showing Christ with the Crown of Thorns, on the Cross, already deceased (eyes closed), with the usual INRI phylactery on the upper crossbar of the Latin cross, three nails (note the crossed feet) and a short, golden and polychrome purity cloth or perizonium. It is known, in German, as “Gabelkreuz” or “Gabelkruzifix” (“Sorrowful Crucifix” in Spanish) to a type of Gothic Crucified Christ that is especially expressive (prioritizing external suffering over other aspects) and that, normally, presents the cross in a of Y or ypsilon (alluding to the Tree of Life), created, apparently, thanks to the influence of the mysticism of the late 13th and early 14th centuries (Saint Brigid...
