Bringing the Holy Land Home: The Crusades, Chertsey Abbey, and the Reconstruction of a Medieval Masterpiece

Where did this go?

By Grace Acquilano '22

According to the Fogg Art Museum at Harvard, it appears as though this painting did not travel much. A man named Professor E. Paoletti must have bought the painting in Italy and brought it over to the United States in the early twentieth-century. In 1926, Paoletti sold the painting to the Fogg Art Museum and has been displayed there ever since. Thus, before Paoletti transported the painting to the United States, it must have remained in Northern Italy as part of a collection of Italian panel paintings.
