This is the predella (the lower panel) of an altarpiece painted for a small chapel in the castle of Cerreto Ciampoli near Siena in around 1495, the main panel of which is also in the National Gallery’s collection. The main panel shows the Nativity with the Annunciation to the Virgin at the top of the pilasters flanking it, so that the whole altarpiece acts as a summary of the most important events of Christ’s life, from his conception to resurrection. The coats of arms at either end are those of the commissioners, members of the Cerretani family.
