The Stoning of St Peter
by PUGET, Pierre, Terracotta, 38 x 51 cm
The fragment (the upper part of the relief is missing) was probably a study to a panel of an unidentified altarpiece. The iconography of the relief is related to the painted versions of the subject executed by the Genoese painters of the 17th century, notably Giovanni Andrea Ferrari and Gioacchino Assereto.
