# Tabernacle \(detail\) [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [DESIDERIO DA SETTIGNANO]() - Date: 1451-1500 - Technique: Marble ## Commentary The half-length relief of the Lamentation over Christ forming the lower half of the tabernacle, with the outlines of the figures deeply undercut, is stylistically distinct from the sculptor’s other late work and has led to the suggestion that it is not by Desiderio at all, although iconographically it is appropriate for an altar dedicated to the sacrament. ## Related artworks - [A Little Boy]() - [A Little Boy]() - [Crucifix]() - [Laughing Boy]() - [Mary Magdalene]() - [Mary Magdalene]() - [Mary Magdalene]() - [Meeting of Christ and St John the Baptist as Youth]() - [Portrait of Marietta Strozzi]() - [St Jerome in the Desert]() - [Tabernacle \(detail\)]() - [Tabernacle \(detail\)]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
