Abstract

The Del Tasso workshop, carvers of the Tondo Doni frame, and the ‘Crucifix’ of the Misericordia of Montepulciano. The article focuses on one of the most debated and complex issues in the area of studies on Florentine wooden sculpture of the Renaissance: the activity of the woodcarvers of Michelangelo’s Tondo Doni frame, the sons of Domenico del Tasso, Marco and Francesco. These well-known masters had contacts with the most established carving workshops in Florence between the 15th and 16th century: that of the brothers Giuliano and Benedetto da Maiano, and that of the brothers Giuliano and Antonio da Sangallo the Elder. The present paper adds a new sculpture to the limited corpus attributed to the carvers of the Doni Tondo frame: the wooden ‘Crucifix’ in the oratory of Sant’Emidio in Montepulciano, seat of the Archconfraternity of the Misericordia.
