ANDREA DEL CASTAGNO (b. 1423, Castagno, d. 1457, Firenze) |
Crucifixionc. 1450Panel, 29 x 35 cm National Gallery, London | ||
It is assumed that this small panel was a predella painting. In this painting, as in the Berlin Madonna, Andrea's attention appears to be concentrated on the monumentality of the figures, the brightness of the colours, whose brilliance replaces natural light. The painting is not accepted as autograph works by all scholars.
