• Resumen

  • Archival documents and stylistic analysis provide evidence for identifying an unpublished, privately-owned and only recently documented work as the bronze Crucifix by Ferdinando Tacca formerly in the Palazzo Ducale in Massa. Of excellent quality and in a perfect state of preservation, the bronze shares the style of two other Crucifixes by the sculptor, based on the same model and of identical dimensions, housed in the Cathedrals of Pietrasanta and Prato. Datable to the period between 1647 and 1650, this work represents a significant addition to the artist´s oeuvre, given our current state of knowledge.
