The motif of the winding sheet draped over the edge of the sarcophagus is taken from Simone Martini's depiction of the same subject in the central compartment of the predella of his polyptych of 1320 painted for the church of the Dominican convent of Saint Catherine in Pisa and now in the Museo Nazionale di San Matteo there. It also features in Ceccarelli's signed panel of the subject in the Liechtenstein Collection (for which see, for instance, the catalogues of the exhibitions, Liechtenstein: The Princely Collections, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 1985-6, pp. 189-91, no. 122, illustrated in colour, and 'Manifestatori delle Cose miracolose': Arte del '300 e '400 da collezioni in Svizzera e nel Liechtenstein, Thyssen-Bornemisza Foundation, Lugano-Castagnola, 1991, pp. 47-9, no. 10, illustrated in colour). The treatment of the figure of Christ in the present panel is altogether closer to Simone Martini's prototype than in the Liechtenstein panel, although both Ceccarelli's depictions include the Crown of Thorns, each spike creating a minuscule wound, absent in the Pisa panel.
