Gallery Edition – Christ in a Mandorla, with the instruments of the Passion, with St. Stephen and St. Lawrence below by Berlinghiero – 44×154 Interior Architectural Study

Curatorial Narrative Berlinghiero’s “Christ in a Mandorla, with the instruments of the Passion, with St. Stephen and St. Lawrence below” (c. 1230s) occupies a pivotal moment in the evolution of medieval art, where Byzantine influences converge with nascent Gothic sensibilities.
