Florence -Madrid, circa 1560 -1608 · From Italy to Spanish naturalism
In The Last Supper as in The Descent from the Cross, Bartolomeo Carducci orders monumental figures with powerful drawing, precise light and contained emotion.
Bartolomeo Carducci, called Bartolomé Carducho in Spain, was born in Florence around 1560 and died in Madrid in 1608. Trained with Bartolomeo Ammannati then Federico Zuccaro, he arrived in Spain to participate in the decor of the Escorial. He then became one of the founders of the Madrid school and an essential intermediary between late Italian culture and emerging Spanish naturalism. The Descent from the Cross, painted in 1595 for the chapel of Santa Rita in the former convent of San Felipe el Real, organized the large diagonal of the body of Christ in a monumental but restrained scene.

Architecture and the table are never simple settings; they measure the moral space where separation, sacrifice and community play out.

Carducci constructs emotion with the discipline of an architect: pain and presentiment arise from the very order of bodies.
