This tempera on wood is signed
and dated (1394) by Simone da Cusighe.
It depicts the life and death of San Bartolomeo in eight panels that
surround a central image of the Madonna della Misericordia. The crowned
Virgin holds the cloak under which several monks seek protection. On
her chest is Christ in a mandorla. This panel was originally in the
church of San Bartolomeo a Salce (Belluno).
