STELLA, Fermo da Caravaggio: Crucifixion and other scenes

Crucifixion and other scenes Fermo da Caravaggio was an Italian Renaissance painter whose work bridged the graceful traditions of Northern Italian art with the dramatic spiritual intensity emerging in his era. This multi-scene composition demonstrates the common practice of arranging narrative biblical episodes within a single frame, allowing viewers to contemplate the Crucifixion alongside related moments of Christian passion and salvation. The church of San Bernardino in Caravaggio has preserved this significant example of devotional art, which would have guided the faithful through the central mysteries of their faith.
