Beskrivning:
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.
