Abstract
(en)
Reconsiders the fresco decorations of the Rusconi chapel in the crypt of the cathedral of Parma in light of reassessment of the critical history, 16th-20th cs., as well as results of recent restorations and new documentary evidence published by Zanichelli in 1994. The documents establish that Giovanni Rusconi, bishop of Parma, took over a former sacristy in 1398 and rebuilt it as his funerary chapel, and that the chapel was ceded by his heirs to the Ayana family in 1476. Concludes from the documents that the chapel was prepared quickly; dates the frescoes between May 1398 and the first years of the 15th c. and reexamines their iconography and style.
