Crucifixion of Christ

The Crucifixion of St. Francis in Siena is a detached fresco by Pietro Lorenzetti, datable to 1336-1337, preserved in the Basilica of San Francesco in Siena. Placed in a chapel of the transept, it originally comes from the Chapter House of the former convent, where it was part of an almost entirely lost cycle, with the exception of this scene (missing, however, a wide band at the base) and the Risen Christ today in the Museo dell'Opera del Duomo di Siena.
