Curatorial Narrative In Bernardino Lanino’s “Flagellation of Saint Catherine” (1550-55), the Renaissance master crafts a nuanced exploration of light and shadow, underscoring the dramatic intensity of the saint’s martyrdom.

The neutral tones now assume an atmospheric weight, conjuring the luminous glow of a Renaissance palazzo. In a luxury interior environment, this edition would pair exquisitely
