CARLO CRIVELLI. PIETA

Pietà. Artist: Carlo Crivelli (Italian, Venice (?), active by 1457-died 1495 Ascoli Piceno). Dimensions: Overall 28 1/4 x 25 3/8 in. (71.8 x 64.5 cm); painted surface 28 x 25 1/8 in. (71.1 x 63.8 cm). Date: 1476. Remarkable for its expressive intensity, this image of the Pietà belonged to an elaborate Gothic altarpiece widely considered Crivelli's masterpiece (National Gallery, London). Crivelli contrasts ornamental effects with details of extreme realism (or surrealism)--such as the hand with swollen wound and pronounced veins that hangs over the tomb's edge into the viewer's space. In the seventeenth century the picture belonged to the Barberini family in Rome: the frame is decorated with their emblem, the bee.
