Painting Description
The Griffoni Polyptych Predella (detail) is a significant work of Italian Renaissance art attributed to the painter Ercole de' Roberti (c. 1451 – 1496). As a predella, this artwork would have originally been part of the lowermost section of a larger altarpiece, the Griffoni Polyptych, serving as a platform upon which the main panels stood. The polyptych was commissioned for the Griffoni family chapel in the church of San Petronio in Bologna and is considered one of the masterpieces of 15th-century Italian painting.
Ercole de' Roberti, also known as Ercole Ferrarese, was a prominent figure in the Ferrarese school of painting and is known for his expressive figures and innovative use of color. His work on the Griffoni Polyptych is particularly noted for its dramatic intensity and intricate detail. The predella would have featured scenes from the lives of saints or episodes from Christ's life, serving both as a visual foundation for the polyptych and as a narrative complement to the scenes depicted above.
The original polyptych was dismantled in the 18th century, and its various panels are now dispersed across several museums and collections around the world. The surviving detail from the predella showcases de' Roberti's skill in rendering complex narratives within a confined space, as well as his ability to convey emotion and spiritual depth. The predella's detailed workmanship and the artist's reputation contribute to its historical and artistic significance.
The Griffoni Polyptych Predella (detail) is an important example of Ercole de' Roberti's contribution to the development of Renaissance art and offers insight into the religious and cultural context of the period. Its study provides valuable information on the practices of devotional painting, the function of altarpieces in sacred spaces, and the artistic heritage of the city of Bologna during the Renaissance.
