The Galitzin Triptych 1485

The "Galitzin Triptych" is a 1485 artwork by Pietro Perugino depicting the crucifixion of Christ. The triptych is structured with the central panel showing Christ on the cross and the left and right panels featuring figures, likely Saint John the Baptist and the Virgin Mary, respectfully. The landscape backdrop, rendered with the artist's characteristic delicate and clear perspective, is indicative of Perugino's contributions to the early Renaissance movement in Italy. The artwork's composition and figures, typical of Perugino's style, exude a sense of solemn reverence, reinforcing the poignant subject matter.
