Tomb of Archbishop ScherlattiNino Pisano

This marble relief (c. 1300–1350) formed part of the tomb of Archbishop Scherlatti. Christ is depicted in the Imago Pietatis pose, rising from the tomb with eyes closed, flanked by two mourning angels. The scene blends devotional tenderness with refined Gothic elegance, exemplifying Nino Pisano’s lyrical style and the growing emotional realism in 14th-c. funerary art.
