À propos de la sculpture

This is a relief made in the first half of the 17th century Italy. This relief, in enamelled terracotta and in the style of the della Robbia, represents Christ and the daughters of Jerusalem. A drawing for this relief in the Gabinetto Nazionale delle Stampe, Rome, is by Ciro Ferri, to whom the design must be ascribed. It is also established that this relief formed part of the same series of Passion scenes as three similar reliefs of the Raising of the Cross, the Lamentation and the Entombment in Santi Quirico e Lucia at Ambrogiana (Montelupo). A letter of May, 1685, addressed by Bassetti, secretary of the Grand-Duke Cosimo III, to the Abate Mancini shows that the reliefs of the Stations of the cross at Montelupo were executed in Rome by the stipendiaries of the Grand-Duke and glazed in Florence. The names of the stipendiati for the year 1685 were Piamontini, Ciamminghi, Andreozzi and Cateni, one of whom was presumably responsible for the modelling of this relief.
