Specialist Notes

Rare and spectacular large woodcut engraving performed by & nbsp; Andrea Andreani (about 1558 - 1629), depicts the central detail of a larger and more articulated composition that the Mannerist painter Domenico Beccafumi conceived for the decoration of some panels, placed near the altar, of the floor of the Cathedral of Siena. & nbsp;
