介绍（中）	洛伦佐·摩纳哥（Lorenzo Monaco）是十五世纪初佛罗伦萨的主要画家，他同样具有书籍照明师、壁画、祭坛画和宗教绘画的天赋。这个面板很可能构成了多层祭坛画的中心顶峰，也许是描绘圣母玛利亚和圣子与圣徒多姆尼努斯、施洗约翰、彼得和安东尼·阿博特（恩波利教区博物馆）的祭坛画。在描绘《十字架》时，艺术家排除了传统上融入叙事的众多人物，如成群的士兵、哀悼的圣女和盗贼，从而将构图减少到只包括圣母和圣约翰。考虑到基督的牺牲，他们被描绘成坐在地上，以达到构图或戏剧效果。与基督的形象相比，它们相对较大的尺寸可能与它们作为观众的代祷者的角色有关，强调了作品的虔诚方面。
介绍（英）	Lorenzo Monaco, the leading painter in Florence during the early fifteenth century, was equally gifted as an illuminator of books, a painter of frescoes, altarpieces and devotional paintings. This panel likely formed the central pinnacle of a multi-tiered altarpiece, perhaps that portraying the Madonna and Child with Saints Domninus, John the Baptist, Peter, and Anthony Abbot (Museo Diocesano, Empoli). In depicting the Crucifixion, the artist has excluded the numerous figures traditionally incorporated into the narrative, such as the crowds of soldiers, the mourning Holy Women, and the Thieves, thereby reducing the composition to include only the Virgin and Saint John. Contemplating Christ’s sacrifice, they are portrayed seated on the ground, for compositional or dramatic effect. Their relatively large size compared to the figure of Christ may relate to their roles as intercessors for the viewer, emphasizing the devotional aspect of the work.
