The Crucifixion. [78.]
On one side of the cross stands The Virgin, on the other St. Jerome with his lion.
From the Monastery of St. Jerome in Florence.
The Entombment. [56.]
This picture was also painted (in about 1493), for the Convent of the Gesuati.
The Descent from the Cross. [57.]
The lower part of the picture is Perugino's work, and the background. Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathæa are on the left. The Madonna, fainting, but supported by the holy women, is on the right, and in the centre at the foot of the cross kneels Mary Magdalen. The three nails are in the foreground placed on the clothes of one of the men.
This picture was begun in 1503 by Filippino Lippi for the brethren of SS. Annunziata de Servi, at the expense of Jacopo Federighi, a Knight of Malta. Upon Filippino's death in April 1504 it was completed by Perugino.
