Description:
|
The name is an attribution to an anonymous Italian painter or a group of painters that may include Jacopino di Francesco Bavosi, his son, and other artists. This is one of the six fragments (Death of the Virgin, Martyrdom of St. Christina, St. Gregory in His Study, Vision of St. Romuald, An Angel and two Saints, An Angel, Saint Lucy and Saint Paul) that remain of a single altarpiece. The panels arrived in the Pinacoteca through the Savorgnan bequest in 1776. It is assumed the altarpiece had as the central panel the Dormition of the Virgin. The subjects suggest that the altarpiece was originally in the church of the monastery of Camaldolese nuns of Santa Christina.
