(Attr.) Saint Andrew Crucified

A point of comparison for this important work is offered by the bronze crucifixes modelled by Ferrata to Bernini's design in 1659 for the altars of the Vatican Basilica. We find a similar tension and modelling of the anatomy, while the drapery is skilfully carved in the forms of a monumental classicism.
