A Crucifixion by Fra Angelico will be one of the highlights of Christie's Old Masters Part 1 auction scheduled in London on July 6th. The panel on poplar wood depicts the Virgin, St.
John the Baptist and Mary Magdalene at the foot of the Cross. Dated between 1419 and 1424, it is offered with an estimate between four and six million pounds. It is only the third time since the beginning of the century that a work by the Dominican friar of the Convent of San Marco arrives on the market.
