SANTACROCE, Girolamo da
(b. 1480/85, Santa Croce, d. ca. 1556, Venezia)

Christ and the Woman of Samaria

1530s
Oil on panel, 25 x 35 cm
Private collection

Another version of Santacroce's Christ and the Woman of Samaria, of almost identical dimensions, can be found in the Museo Borgogna, Vercelli along with a pendant, Noli me tangere, begging the question whether the present painting may also have initially formed part of a pair.
