{"product_id":"pala-di-santagostino-pieta-pietro-perugino","title":"Pala di Sant'Agostino (Pietà) - Pietro Perugino","description":"\u003cp\u003eA serene and balanced depiction of the Pietà by the Italian Renaissance master Pietro Perugino, originally part of the Pala di Sant'Agostino polyptych.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis work is a fragment from the larger Pala di Sant'Agostino, a complex polyptych commissioned for the church of Sant'Agostino in Perugia. Pietro Perugino, a master of the Umbrian school, executed this panel during the final phase of his career. The composition depicts the dead Christ supported by the Virgin Mary, Nicodemus, and Saint John the Evangelist. The figures are arranged in a balanced, symmetrical manner, a hallmark of Perugino's approach to devotional subjects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerugino employs a clear, measured spatial arrangement. The figures occupy a shallow foreground, set against a simple architectural backdrop that directs the viewer's attention to the central action. The treatment of the human form reflects the artist's focus on grace and clarity. The anatomical rendering of Christ, while precise, maintains a sense of calm composure rather than overt physical suffering. The colour palette is restrained, relying on the contrast between the pale flesh tones of Christ and the darker, saturated garments of the surrounding figures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis panel demonstrates the artist's ability to synthesise the influence of his contemporaries with his own established style. The soft modelling of the faces and the gentle expressions are characteristic of his later works. The painting serves as an example of the devotional art produced for monastic settings in early sixteenth-century Italy. The work is currently housed in the Galleria Nazionale dell'Umbria, where it remains a subject of study for those interested in the transition between the early and high Renaissance periods in central Italy. The clarity of the composition and the deliberate placement of each figure contribute to the overall sense of stillness and contemplation that defines this particular interpretation of the Pietà.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/pieta-antonello-da-messina\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePietà by Antonello da Messina\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/angel-pieta-lorenzo-lotto\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eAngel Pietà by Lorenzo Lotto\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/pietro-perugino\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePietro Perugino prints →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pietro Perugino","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59462441271631,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59462469648719,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59462469681487,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59462469714255,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59462469747023,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59462469779791,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59462469812559,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59462469845327,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59462469878095,"sku":null,"price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59462469910863,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59462469943631,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59462469976399,"sku":null,"price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Pala-di-Sant-Agostino-Piet-_Poster_CompositorV1_1792126768220.jpg?v=1794360959","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.com\/products\/pala-di-santagostino-pieta-pietro-perugino","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
