Miniature from a Mariegola: The Flagellation

Lorenzo Veneziano

Cleveland Museum of Art

Miniature from a Mariegola: The Flagellation by Lorenzo Veneziano. A man with a halo around his head, wearing only a loincloth and barefoot, stands in the center of the painting with his hands tied to a brown column with a haloed head. He has blood on his body. On either side of him stand two men with haloes, each holding a long stick with a pointed end, poised to hit the central figure. The man on the left wears a red tunic with a blue cape, a blue and black pouch, grey tights, and black shoes. The man on the right wears a blue cape, red tunic, and brown tights. Above them are three flying angels with blue and white wings. The background is gold with a border around the edge featuring geometric shapes in red, blue, white and gold, interspersed with small portraits.
