Lot Essay

This composition relates to Niccolò Antonio Colantonio's Descent from the Cross (Naples, Museo di Capodimonte) made for the Chiesa di San Domenico Maggiore. Colantonio's picture was itself related to the design for a tapestry, or possibly canvas, forming part of a series made for Alfonso d'Aragona by Rogier van der Weyden.
