This fresco, "Jesus Beneath the Winepress", depicts a moment from the Passion of Christ. The artist, Ambrogio Bergognone, a prominent figure of the Lombard Renaissance, portrays Jesus standing on a winepress, symbolizing his sacrifice. The drapery of the figure is realistically rendered, exhibiting Bergognone's mastery of detail and form. The artwork's fragmented state, with faded pigments and some areas missing, reflects the passage of time and the fragility of art.
