Description:
|
|
Palla Strozzi is known to have commissioned Fra Angelico to paint the Deposition, to hang in the sacristy of Santa Trìnita, Florence. The Deposition, which was not an altarpiece, had been left unfinished at Lorenzo Monaco’s death, ca. 1425. The frame dates to that period and the three scenes in the gables and the three predella panels are by Lorenzo. Fra Angelico’s shop executed the 12 standing figures on the pilasters and the Deposition, with its sublime landscape, in the main panel, but there is no consensus among scholars as to when the work was undertaken. In Fra Angelico’s surviving large-scale work nothing resembles the vast landscape, whose vistas extend into distant invisibility. The groups of women to the left of center and men to the right were undoubtedly designed by Fra Angelico, although probably executed by others.
