This painting and 'The Lamentation' were painted by the same anonymous artist who painted a 'Christ and the Virgin attended by seventeen Dominican Blessed and Friars' in the sacristy of Santa Maria Novella, Florence. Originally the panels served as the shutters of a small altarpiece, probably with a 'Virgin and Child' in the centre and the 'Angel' and 'Virgin of the Annunciation' above each side panel. Traditionally, the Virgin, St John the Evangelist and Mary Magdalen are depicted at the Crucifixion.
