# Mystic Crucifixion is completed about 1500 as an apocalyptic sacred panel in the Savonarolan aftermath neighbourhood

Date: 1500

## The fact

Britannica and Met-survey neighbourhood independently treat late apocalyptic crucifixes in Botticelli’s sacred turn.

It is one event.

## Context

Apocalyptic city-penitence imagery is a polarization path for a fractured republic. Shared Savonarolan memory remains. Uncertainty on exact partisanship stays named.

[Sandro Botticelli](/people/sandro-botticelli)’s documented role is bounded by other offices and collaborators named in the sources below. Sharing a field with them is not a reason to drop a documented act, and it is not a reason to assign later consequences done in the name after death.

Fogg Art Museum holds the panel; dating c. 1500. Shield of Florence and angelic penitence imagery sit in post-Savonarola crisis visual culture. Not a unique political manifesto transcript.

Named person as heading of the dated public instrument. Later editors, museums, printers, or offices share publication. Complex where later carriers are the surviving public file.

## Evidence and sources

Britannica — Sandro Botticelli and Met Heilbrunn — Botticelli independently describe this instrument.

Official or archival record: Britannica — Sandro Botticelli (https://www.britannica.com/biography/Sandro-Botticelli; Encyclopaedia Britannica).

## Significance

Mystic Crucifixion is a polarization path of medium confidence on political programme, high that the panel exists in the late file.

## What is established and what is not

Established as a sourced public record of this instrument at the date assigned here.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.

Established here: a sourced, dated public instrument with a named contribution by Sandro Botticelli.

They are not a public rating.

The driver `political-polarization` is attached because the mechanism named in Significance follows from this instrument, not because a standing list of welfare headings needed another tick. Sandro Botticelli did not file a later UNESCO form, a later Loeb colophon, or a later museum label as a personal act. A portrait or conventional bust is not this mechanism. Allegation, reconstruction, and established occurrence stay distinct. Split from dated Mystic Nativity. Do not invent a piagnone membership card. Keep the carrier date of later English distinct from the received historical year stored in the date field. Do not read a later English edition as a recovered autograph of Sandro Botticelli.
