Behind her, the horrible animal-like figure directing his squint-eyed gaze away from the scene probably takes up the theme of the bodyguard, the symbol of the treachery and wickedness that determined the killing of Christ. --- Keywords: -------------- Author: ROSSO FIORENTINO Title: Deposition from the Cross (detail) Time-line: 1501-1550 School: Italian Form: painting Type: religious C $.'
