Pietà, 15th Century sculpture, Koper/Capodistria, Piove di Sacco, PaduaAbstract
The wooden Pietà sculpture in the Koper Cathedral, which was damaged in a vandal attack in 2016, was studied in considerable detail in 2005 and was provisionally labelled as a Venetian work from the middle of the 15th Century influenced by the Murano painting school. The latest findings show that the work most probably originates from Padua, also from the middle of the century. The roughly contemporary sculpture of Pietà in Piove di Sacco, which was undoubtedly made by the same sculptor as the Pietà in Koper and can be related to the painting of the circle of Francesco Squarcione, had not been noticed until now.
