DESCRIPTIVE INFORMATION

This panel painting of the Crucifixion by Perugino, the artist's only painting in Siena, was commissioned in 1502 by Mariano Chigi but completed a few years later, in 1506. The altarpiece originally featured a predella with Stories of Christ. Today, the predella is divided between the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the Art Institute of Chicago.
