$a The work describes one of the masterpieces of Renaissance sculpture - Benedetto da Maiano's pulpit for the Franciscan church of Santa Croce, Florence; which was commissioned by the businessman, Pietro Mellini, and completed in 1485. Its five bas-reliefs show events in the life of St. Francis of Assisi. The seven plates are explained in the Prefazione. In some copies they are uncaptioned; in others they are captioned as follows: [1] Veduta Prospettica del Pergamo; [2] Papa Onorio confirma la regola di San Francesco (1st bas-relief); [3] San Francesco passa in mezzo alle fiamme (unharmed, in the presence of the sultan) (2nd bas-relief); [4] San Francesco riceve le sacre Stimate (on mount La Verna) (3rd bas-relief); [5] Morte di San Francesco (4th bas-relief); [6] Martirio di cinque Frati dell'ordine di S. Francesco (in Mauretania) (5th bas-relief); [7] Figure allegoriche esprimenti la Fede, Speranza, Carità, Fortezza, e Giustizia (and a portrait of Benedetto da Maiano). Three models for the sculptures are preserved at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. |
