La Resurrezione lombarda del Museo Stibbert dalla parrocchiale di Fontanella al Piano

An unpublished Renaissance Lombard panel with the Resurrection of Christ that was acquired by Frederick Stibbert (1838-1906) is currently exhibited in his historic house museum in Florence. This work was executed by a still anonymous provincial painter of Southeast Lombardy. The painting also portrays a small procession coming out from a church, which is decorated with an inscription and a civic coat of arms. These two decorative details have allowed to identify the provenance of the panel: the church of San Cassiano in Fontanella al Piano. Moreover the study of documents concerning both Frederick Stibbert and the history of the church and of the village allowed to reconstruct the history of the panel, from its birth to its life in the Florentine museum.
