Once again, so far, this isn’t in the list of works, by this artist (or is it?), in Mr. Melcher’s blog. A slightly-different-coloration, click-to-enlarge image can be found here.La Derelitta (The Outcast) isn’t currently shown online by its current-location.It is described as follows in a footnote on page 166 of an eBook, quoting Berenson (who accredited the artist for this painting) and Steinmann, from his 1897-1902 writings:
A young woman in a ragged white linen garment is seated at the steps of a stately Renaissance building, weeping bitterly. Her long dark hair falls heavily over her face, her head is buried in her hands, and her other clothes lie strewn on the steps around her. In her loneliness she is the very image of inconsolable despair.Fast forward to the present day, where this provides the following (Google translated) description:Botticelli painted the most famous person, known for decades as the “La Derelitta”, which in reality represents Mordecai, Esther’s uncle, just in front of the sealed door, in a scene of rare drama, desperate, because Xerxes, the king of Susa, decided to kill the Jews of the kingdom.neither a woman, nor a Renaissance building. That is consistent with the description found here, of the current-location’s paintings, which also says experts are uncertain whether the artist, or one of his students, painted it.A different coloration image can be found here. The artist’s Wikipedia page (Google translated Italian Wikipedia page has more), and collection (many more under Subcategories at each level).Third time a work attributed to this artist has appeared here.
