Flagellation

Luca Signorelli's Flagellation (c. 1505) exemplifies his early mastery in Religious painting, showcasing intense emotional detail and dramatic composition. Though stylistically influenced by the High renaissance, the work reflects Signorelli's distinctive approach to biblical themes. Created during his first stay in Marche, it is considered one of his earliest surviving pieces, characterized by precise figural depictions and a compelling sense of movement. The panel captures the agony of the flagellation, inviting viewers into the suffering and spiritual reflection central to religious narratives of the period.
