Sant'Apollonia was a former Benedictine convent, founded in 1339. In 1447 the abbess hired Andrea del Castagno to decorate the west wall of the convent’s refectory (Cenacolo) with frescoes of the Last Supper, the Resurrection, the Crucifixion and the Entombment. Today the Cenacolo is a museum which also houses some detached frescos and works by other artists. This Crucifixion was painted for for the convent of Santa Maria degli Angeli. It shows Saint Benedict, the Virgin, Saint John Evangelist, and Saint Romuald under Jesus on the cross. (Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.oxfordart online.com/)
