Title	The Blessing Christ, the Mourning Virgin, the Mourning St. John the Evangelist
Description	English: These fragments originally adorned a monumental crucifix. The Blessing Christ would have appeared at the top, while Mary and John the Evangelist would have occupied the left and right ends of the cross's horizontal beam. Pietro da Rimini imitated the naturalistic figural style of Giotto, the famed Florentine painter, but also excelled at combining dazzling colors and stylized expressions for dramatic effect. The exaggerated facial features of Pietro da Rimini's figures ensured that their expressions would be comprehensible even when suspended high above the floor. In a recent innovation that demanded the worshiper's imagination, the open mouths of Mary and St. John suggest the sound of their lamentation. For more information on these fragments, please see Zeri catalogue number 36, pp. 60-61.
