Panel second half 15th century Northern Italian This panel depicting the Crucifixion was originally the top of a casket or box made in northern Italy in the second half of the fifteenth century. The composition appears to have been copied from a lost wall painting by Altichiero (active ca. 1369-ca. 1384) or his school in Padua or Verona. It is one of very few examples where a large religious composition has been copied onto the lid of a casket. The technique of pen on wood with a cut-away, punched background was continued well into the sixteenth century on a variety of boxes and cassoni that have been attributed to workshops in the Adige Valley (notable examples in the Museo d'Arte Antica, Milan, and the Victoria and Albert Museum, London)..
