Lament Over The Dead Christ (Previtali)
''Lament over the Dead Christ'' is a 1524 or 1525 oil on canvas painting by Andrea Previtali, produced for the church of Sant’Andrea, Bergamo, where it still hangs. One of the artist's last works, it was painted after his return to his birthplace of Bergamo, a phase during which he was heavily influenced by Albrecht Dürer, Albrecht Altdorfer and other German art, as also seen in ''The Crossing of the Red Sea'' and ''Crucifixion''. It is considered one of his most intense paintings. It seems to be linked with the recited mystery plays popular at the time of its production Mauro Zanchi, ''Andrea Previtali il colore prospettico di maniera belliniana'', Ferrari Editrice, 2001, p 57-58. as well as Lament over the Dead Christ (Lotto), the work of the same title by Previtali's friend Lorenzo Lotto in Sant'Alessandro in Colonna, also in Bergamo - Lotto and Previtali's studios were next-door to each other near the church of San Michele al Pozzo Bianco, enabling them to compare and study ...

Paintings In Bergamo
Painting is the practice of applying paint, pigment, color or other medium to a solid surface (called the "matrix" or "support"). The medium is commonly applied to the base with a brush, but other implements, such as knives, sponges, and airbrushes, can be used. In art, the term ''painting ''describes both the act and the result of the action (the final work is called "a painting"). The support for paintings includes such surfaces as walls, paper, canvas, wood, glass, lacquer, pottery, leaf, copper and concrete, and the painting may incorporate multiple other materials, including sand, clay, paper, plaster, gold leaf, and even whole objects. Painting is an important form in the visual arts, bringing in elements such as drawing, composition, gesture (as in gestural painting), narration (as in narrative art), and abstraction (as in abstract art). Paintings can be naturalistic and representational (as in still life and landscape painting), photographic, abstract ...

San Michele Al Pozzo Bianco
San Michele al Pozzo Bianco is a church in the upper town of Bergamo, on a small piazza of the same name, near Porta Sant'Agostino, on Via Porta Dipinta. The church is now in a corner next to the frescoed house of the vicar, entered by a large rounded arch. The vicar's house has an external fresco attributed to Giacomo Scanardi. History Founded in the 8th century, it was rebuilt many times over the centuries. The present facade is from the early 20th century. Much of the interior was rebuilt in the 15th century, and covered with frescoes in a style influenced by Byzantine iconography. Art The chapel to the left, completed later, has a series of frescoed panels ''Scenes from the Life of The Virgin Mary'' (1525), masterworks by Lorenzo Lotto. The central chapel and the one on the right is frescoed (1577) by Giovan Battista Guarinoni d'Averara. The latter chapel has a canvas ''Madonna and child with Saints Peter and Paul'' by Giovanni Paolo Lolmo. On the right wall, there is ...

Lorenzo Lotto
Lorenzo Lotto (c. 1480 – 1556/57) was an Italian painter, draughtsman, and illustrator, traditionally placed in the Venetian school, though much of his career was spent in other north Italian cities. He painted mainly altarpieces, religious subjects and portraits. He was active during the High Renaissance and the first half of the Mannerist period, but his work maintained a generally similar High Renaissance style throughout his career, although his nervous and eccentric posings and distortions represented a transitional stage to the Florentine and Roman Mannerists. Overview During his lifetime Lotto was a well-respected painter and certainly popular in Northern Italy; he is traditionally included in the Venetian School, but his independent career actually places him outside the Venetian art scene. He was certainly not as highly regarded in Venice as in the other towns where he worked, for he had a stylistic individuality, even an idiosyncratic style (although it fits w ...

Andrea Previtali
Andrea Previtali (c. 1480 –1528) was an Italian painter of the Renaissance period, active mainly in Bergamo. He was also called Andrea Cordelliaghi. Biography Previtali was a pupil of the painter Giovanni Bellini. In Bergamo, he painted a ''John the Baptist preaching with other saints'' (1515) for the church of Santo Spirito, a ''San Benedetto and other saints'' for Bergamo Cathedral, and a ''Deposition from the Cross'' for Sant'Andrea. Other works of his are in the Accademia Carrara. and the National Gallery, London (''Salvator Mundi'' and '' The Virgin and Child with a Shoot of Olive'', both left to the gallery in 1910). Previtali gained notice in 1937 in the United Kingdom for "not being Giorgione". Kenneth Clark, then Director of the National Gallery, bought two small panels of his from a dealer in Vienna, each with two rustic scenes. He paid £14,000 for them, a high price at the time, despite opposition from his curators. The authoritative ascription of them to Pre ...

Lament Over The Dead Christ (Lotto)
''Lament over the Dead Christ'' is an oil-on-canvas painting by Lorenzo Lotto, created ''c.'' 1522, now in the sacristy of Sant'Alessandro in Colonna on via Sant'Alessandro in Bergamo. The work was restored in 1548, 1702, 1880 and 1998, not always respecting the original tones and colours and thus rendering it difficult to recognise Lotto's traditional characteristics. The work was commissioned for the Corpus Domini chapel by the 'Societas Corporis Domini Nostri Jesu Christi et Sancti Joseph', a confraternity. The commission was probably made between 1521 and 1523. When the church was modified and the altar rededicated, the painting was moved to the sacristy. References Bibliography

Mystery Play
Mystery plays and miracle plays (they are distinguished as two different forms although the terms are often used interchangeably) are among the earliest formally developed plays in medieval Europe. Medieval mystery plays focused on the representation of Bible stories in churches as tableaux with accompanying antiphonal song. They told of subjects such as the Creation, Adam and Eve, the murder of Abel, and the Last Judgment. Often they were performed together in cycles which could last for days. The name derives from '' mystery'' used in its sense of ''miracle,'' but an occasionally quoted derivation is from ''ministerium'', meaning ''craft'', and so the 'mysteries' or plays performed by the craft guilds. Origins As early as the fifth century living tableaux were introduced into sacred services. The plays originated as simple ''tropes'', verbal embellishments of liturgical texts, and slowly became more elaborate. At an early period chants from the service of the day were ad ...
