Fresco - Chapelle Notre-Dame-des-Fontaines - La Brigue
Jesus before Pontius Pilate, with soldiers, by Giovanni Canavesio, 1450-1500, detail from the fresco cycle of the Passion of Christ and Last Judgement, 15th century, by Giovanni Canavesio and Giovanni Baleison, in the Chapelle Notre-Dame-des-Fontaines or Shrine of Our Lady of the Fountains, near La Brigue, Alpes-Maritimes, Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur, France. In this scene Pilate's wife resembles Marguerite Lascaris, Lady of Tende. The catholic sanctuary chapel was built in the 13th century and enlarged in the 1490s, when the dukes of Savoy commissioned the paintings. It is listed as a historic monument. Picture by Manuel Cohen
