The Man of Sorrows, with the Virgin, Saint John, Saint Francis and Saint Jerome,
oil on panel, 33 x 69 cm, integral frame
An attribution to Domenico di Michelino (1417? - 1491 Florence) has been suggested.
Domenico di Michelino’s real name was Domenico di Francesco but he took on the name of his first master, the cassone-painter Michele di Benedetto, by whom no works are known. In 1442 Domenico di Michelino became a member of the Compagnia di San Luca and in the same year he is mentioned in connection with Filippo Lippi’s workshop. In 1444 Domenico di Michelino became a member of the Arte dei medici e speziali. His artistic links with Francesco Pesellino and Zanobi Strozzi, as well as the lack of documented works (his Dante explaining the Divine Comedy in the church of Santa Maria del Fiore is the only known commission that is recorded) has led to Domenico di Michelino’s works passing under erroneous attributions. A date in the first half of the 1440s, by comparison with other known works by Domenico di Michelino, seems plausible.
