Christ with a Cross (1518) by Moretto da Brescia
Christ with the Cross or Christ with the Cross and a Monk is a 1518 oil on panel painting by Moretto da Brescia, now in the Accademia Carrara in Bergamo.[1]
It is first recorded in 1859, when it was in the collection of Gugliemo Lochis, an inhabitant of Brescia, where it was misattributed to Titian - no previous owners are known. The first study of the work came in 1886 restored the correct attribution and dated it to Moretto's youth.[2]
