520 |a Rosso Fiorentino's Volterra Descent from the Cross (1521) has long proved enigmatic to scholars; it has even been considered a mockery of its subject. This article attempts to comprehend the intention of Rosso's imagery, which has seemed so strange to so many, in terms of the painting's function as an altarpiece in a Franciscan setting. Unique factors of Rosso's conception-such as the smile upon the face of the dead Christ, and the despair of the figures in the painting who are depicted unaware of this aspect of Christ-can be related to the demands of Franciscan spirituality, and to the essential theology of the Resurrection that must be read into all images of the Descent from the Cross.
