Girolamo del Pacchia's "cataletto" for the Confraternity of San Bernardino in Siena.
The article reconstructs the four headboards of the "cataletto" of the lay Confraternity of San Bernardino of Siena, painted by Girolamo del Pacchia in 1514-1515. Two panels at the Alte Pinakothek in Munich depicting the 'Madonna and Child' and 'San Bernardino' were already known; to them can now be added a 'Christ "in pietà"' of unknown location, and a 'Stigmatization of Saint Francis' from the Chiaramaonte Bordonaro collection. An examination of del Pacchia's activity, from his initial Pinturicchio-like manner through his period of tangential contact with the "maniera moderna" of Sodoma and Beccafumi, allows for new attributions and the exclusion of others. Under the name of del Pacchia one can in fact place works to date attributed to Bagnacavallo, Riccio, and even to the young Beccafumi.
