Description

Hanging and burning of Girolamo Savonarola in Piazza della Signoria in Florence in 1498. 17th-century copy of a contemporary original attributed to Francesco Rosselli. In a contemporary copy from Perugia, the scroll held by angels bears the inscription "ecce quomodo moritur iustus et viri sancti de terra tolluntur". This is a quote by Savonarolia, its addition amounting to a condemnation of the execution, while the Fiorentine original by Rosselli had the intent of minimizing the impact of the event,

representing the audience in small, indifferent and otherwise busy groups.
Date ca. 1650, copy of a contemporary illustration of ca. 1500.
